gdesklets problem seeing pygtk....

[ooagentbender]

I installed pygtk, the newest version and then i installed gdesklets, both binaries for slackware, and I get this when I try and run gdesklets

You need a recent version of PyGTK to run this program.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/gdesklets", line 10, in ?
from main import init
File "/usr/share/gdesklets/main/__init__.py", line 37, in ?
from utils.i18n import Translator

from FileWatcher import FileWatcher
File "/usr/share/gdesklets/utils/FileWatcher.py", line 3, in ?
import gtk
ImportError: No module named gtk


anyone?

You have the sensors installed? I ask because you did not mention if you had installed an individual sensor or not to try it out.
gdesklets sensors (http://gdesklets.gnomedesktop.org/categories.php?func=gd_show_sub_cat&gd_subcat_view=5)

And looking at the linuxpackages.net (http://www.linuxpackages.net/view_comment.php?id=2681&cid=1280)
site, there are some things to try. Perhaps the sensors are included in that package, i couldn't tell.

I'll try installing one of those sensors, but I think it has something to do with gtk which I have the most recent version of installed.

anyone?

installing one of the sensors made no difference. can anyone answer my original question....?
