That's just it: PyOpenGL is available for Python 2.5. Go to "http:// pyopengl.sourceforge.net/ctypes/using.html" for information about getting and installing it. Obviously, I don't know what problems are with the tools you tried. There may be backward-compatibility problems that I haven't encountered with PyOpenGL on Python 2.5. I do hope this helps you, even if only a little bit. --Jason -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
