Howdy,

I just got Mandrake 7.2 up and running. When I try to start IDLE, I get the 
following error message:

[cheshire@C718841-B cheshire]$ idle
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/idle/idle.py", line 2, in ?
    import PyShell
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/idle/PyShell.py", line 12, in ?
    from Tkinter import *
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 35, in ?
    import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
ImportError: No module named _tkinter
[cheshire@C718841-B cheshire]$

How can I fix this?

Thanks!

Britt

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.
