Re: [Visualpython-users] problem with visual + module primitives

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

That would seem to mean that the install procedure has put primitives.py 
in a place where Python doesn't look. On Linux platforms it is normally 
placed in /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/visual/primitive.py 
(and there are other critical files there, too). Or maybe there's 
something wrong with the module search path for Python on your machine.
