Hello,
Use python 2.5 for now.
Search the list archives if you need more explanation as to why.

I've been struggling with a mystery problem as to why the following code causes Python to crash: (It started out larger, but I whittled it down to about as small an app as it gets.)
>> import wx
>> app = wx.PySimpleApp()
>> f = wx.Frame(None, -1, "Whats goin' on?!!")
>> p = wx.Panel(f)
>> f.Show()
>> app.MainLoop()This simply displays a frame containing a panel and it starts okay. I can resize the frame and drag it around, but just as soon as the cursor enters the window area, I get an error dialog telling me that python.exe has stopped working. (I'm sure you know the one I mean?!! And Windows offer to check online for a solution to the problem doesn't return any answers ... ) I get this problem both when I'm running it from SPE and when I run it as a standalone program, but when I run it from IDLE, things seem okay. It also runs okay on another WinXP machine, but I haven't checked the python and wxpython versions for that PC. I'm using a Toshiba Satellite Pro with the following configuration:
- platform : win32 (Vista)
- python : 2.6.1
- wxPython : 2.8.9.2I'm guessing its more a compatibility or conflict on my own machine, but I really don't know where to look. I have tried reinstalling both Python and wxPython to no avail. If anyone has some clue to what is going on I would love to hear about it. Thanks!
Best regards,
