Problem with Superkaramba themes


Running SuSE 9.1 - KDE 3.3 (same problem on 3.2)

Here is the problem:

Many of the themes I load in Superkaramba seem to load but then are not displayed properly. You can tell the theme is loaded because you can kinda see it on the desktop - but none of the information is displayed. I can move the theme box around, but nothing is displayed - such as Liquid Weather, etc.

Any ideas?

When I first run SuperKaramba, it says:

Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback


Once I run liquid weather:

superkaramba: TaskManager::TaskManager()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/robpom/liquid_weather_plus/liquid_weather.py", line 13, in ?
import os
ImportError: No module named os
------------------------------------------------------
What does ImportError mean?

It means that I couldn't load a python add-on for liquid_weather.theme
If this is a regular theme and doesn't use python
extensions, then nothing is wrong.
------------------------------------------------------
I have Python installed - so any ideas?

i just installed it on my machine and it seems to be working...

the settings in my .bashrc file are below.. [Environment settings...]

1)
#locate os.pyc
/usr/lib/python2.2/os.pyc
/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/wx/gizmos.pyc
/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/wxPython/gizmos.pyc


2)
##########################


open your .bashrc file and include this

LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib/python2.2/:/usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/gtk-2.0"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH


3)open a new shell and load the superkaramba theme

That didn't fix it and every time now I type "su -" I am told that the /usr/lib/python directories don't exist
