Hi everyone. I cant speak English very well so pls exuse me. I installed POL and everything was fine, untill i tried to start it. Then it begin to start but it cant. I use Mandriva 2011. Wine is working fine. I installed all other servises that POL wanted like icoutils etc. When trying to run in konsole nothing happened, it only displays version number 3.8.8 and I cant write another command. When installing everything I used rpm packages. Pls help I am beginer in Linux.

3.8.8 is utterly outdated, see on the download page how to get the latest release (4.2.1)

4.0.15 is not utterly outdated, it's just outdated (Feb 2012)
Yes, soon 2 years old

I installed version 4.2.1. The problem is the same. The only difference is: usr/share/playonlinux/playonlinux: line 144: python2.6

The real problem is

Import error: No module named wx

if you still have it (as I understand).
This is strange, because wxPython is among package dependencies:

$ rpm -qpR PlayOnLinux_4.2.1.rpm
warning: PlayOnLinux_4.2.1.rpm: Header V4 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID c4676186: NOKEY

redhat-lsb
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
unzip
wget
wine
wxPython
xterm


How did you install the package? Do you have some wxPython package installed?

I used rpm package and it installs automaticaly. I have libwxPythonGTK 2.6 and 2.8 and wxPythonGTK-py2.3 version 2.5.2.8 FC2.

The strange thing is when i try to install newer version on wxPythonGTK it end with:
 
Some requested packages cannot be installed wxPythonGTK-2.8.9.2-4 "undefined" (this is what i can translate from my language) wxPythonGTK-wxversion[==1:2.8.9.2-4]

Thank you for traing to help me and for quick answers.
