What are you trying to run? When you install PythonCard on a Linux 
system from the .tar.gz all of the files are installed into your 
site-packages directory. On my (Ubuntu) box this is 
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages

So, for instance, to run the resourceEditor tool you'll need a command like;

$ 
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/PythonCard/tools/resourceEditor/resourceEditor.py

To run your own PythonCard applications you'll just need to make the .py 
file executable and run it from a shell.

Andy
