Hello. I am running Fedora Linux and KDE, using the Konsole command line. When coding Python, I regularly make a bug causing my program to not terminate. But how do I kill the non-terminating Python interpreter without killing the entire Konsole? The default way of killing the current process on

Hello. I am trying to install Pypvm (http://pypvm.sourceforge.net/), the Python interface to PVM ("Parallel Virtual Machine"). Unfortunately, installation fails. I am hoping someone can help me fix it. I am running Fedora Core 8 Linux. The official Pypvm documentation is very helpful (or somethi
