So, it looks like everything is working together, except that the visual module appears to have changed somewhat since PyGeo was written. Importing "visual" within PyGeo appears to have worked, but "visual.ui" doesn't exist. After having a brief look at the documentation, I found no mention of a "ui" object, but there appears to be visual.display -- so, if you wanted to port the package to the latest VPython, that would be a place to start: replace "visual.ui.display" with "visual.display", and try again. And the fix the next problem, and so on, until it works, when you can send a patch to the old maintainer. http://www.vpython.org/webdoc/visual/index.html - Thomas -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
