[Tutor] TKinter and things over Linux

[Alberto Troiano]

Hi everyone

I have been able to install Python 2.3.4 with Tkinter.
I don't know if there is some kind of knowledge base but if somebody has 
this problem this is what I did:

I have downloaded the tcl/tk rpm from 
http://www.interlink.com.au/anthony/tech/rh9-tcltk/
(They are 8.3.5-185 and fix the bug that Linux Red Hat 9.0 tcl/tk 8.3.5-xx 
has)

I've installed first the tcl package and then the tk package.
Then I've installed Python2.3.4 with the following commands:
./configure --enable-unicode=ucs4
make
make install

That's all

Thanks to all who tried to help me (Now I have a problem with the MySQL 
database but that doesn't fit in this forum ;)

Regards

Alberto
