Hello?
I'm currently installed Ubuntu 8.10. I'm not a Linux person, so I
don't know a lot about it. The reason I installed Ubuntu is just for
EMAN (http://blake.bcm.tmc.edu/eman/). EMAN 1.8 software requires
Python 2.4 not 2.5 which comes with Ubuntu 8.10.

I installed Python 2.4 by typing sudo apt-get install python2.4
Still EMAN doesn't work for me.

Do I have to downgrade 2.5 to 2.4 or install lower version of Ubuntu?
