#2 Console errors and blank GUI on initial launch - fixed!

[Michael Brown]

I was happy to see this graphical protein tracker so I downloaded and installed on Ubuntu 8.10 (with all updates applied) according to the directions. When I run it, I get errors in the console and the GUI tabs have no protein tracking information. I hope you can track this down as I'd like to see a prettier version of my status. Let me know if you need more information.

Here is the console output when I launch the app:
mbrown@lt-slo-mbrown:~/protein_think$ python fahmain.py

Updates fix warnings for recent versions of python library calls.

[Michael Brown]

I don't know Python but I decided to dig into the code because I could see some warnings in the console so I fixed those. I also started debugging the unitinfo.txt file reading and found that the version of the file my folding@home app generated has *8* lines, so it wasn't being parsed. I'm attaching the two files I modified. If you're trying to use this before the owner has a chance to merge the changes, download and expand the main tarfile, then replace the two files with the ones attached.

Adds case for 8 lines in the unitinfo.txt file, as found with Jan 2009 version of folding@home
