[PyOpenGL-Users] Python 2.4, Pyopgengl 2.0 problem

[Larry C. <cu...@we...>]

Hello Pyopengl folks, 

I'm trying to recreate an old installation of Python 2.4 on Win 7
to run some legacy code. 
(it last ran on Win 2K)

i'm using: 

PyOpenGL-2.0.2.01.py2.4-numpy23.exe

and installed glut32.dll from 
<http://user.xmission.com/%7Enate/glut/glut-3.7.6-bin.zip>glut-3.7.6-bin.zip (117 KB) 
from Nate Robbins' pyopengl page:

some of the opengl demo programs run.
some don't.
and some crash python.exe.
my legacy code also crashes python.exe

whenever python.exe stops working, windows reports:

Fault Module Name:  _GLU__init___.pyd

Is there a known reason why this particular module would
crash Python 2.4?

Is there a fix?

thanks for your help.
