Hi, Ah, I do see why you were using Python 2.4. Debian is notorious for supporting older stuff long after Fedora, Ubuntu, and other distributions have upgraded to a version or two ahead to the latest packages. Though, if you would do it I would really really appreciate it if you could make a 2.5 build for me. In return I could take your sounds and pic files and create a nice dpkg package for Debian and Ubuntu Linux systems for easy installation with a shell script to run python and launch it out of the box for Linux gamers interested in your game. If not what I could do is build Python 2.4, install it to a non-standard location like /opt, and run it by setting some export flags to it.
