Every distribution of Linux comes with a package manager which is the tool used to load new applications. Like the App Store on an ipad. On most Linux versions Tkinter comes seperately from Python so you have to install both. For example on my Ubuntu based sysatem I use Synaptic as my package manager and within that I can find packages: python python-tk python3 python3-tk The first two are for v2.7, the second two are python v3 My guess is that the turtle module gets installed as part of the python-tk package so if you find that in your package manager you should be able to install it and turtle will then work. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
