Chen,
Kernel: 2.4.26 (I observe the same with 2.4.25)
Distribution: Debian (straight SARGE, and pymol was acquired with apt-get, so
no
funny compiling business here)
Python: 2.3 (2.4 is also there, but only for testing purposes)
I've noticed on other mailing lists, that people have reported similar error
messages with other packages. This is how I found the original solutions. I
just wanted to report that it also occurs with Pymol. Perhaps you are right,
perhaps it's a python problem, but I'm not prepared to roll back to 2.2 to test
it.

Robert,
According to what I've managed to learn from googling around a bit, this
problem
doesn't occur on 2.6.x kernels.

Well, I'm glad to hear this problem isn't as endemic for Pymol users as I had
feared. What surprised me was that it happened on a fresh Debian install. The
solutions I had posted earlier *do* solve the problem (they did for me), so
hopefully the information will be useful to some people who encounter it.
Regards,
Peter
