The version mismatch referred to is not for __Python__ but for the Oracle client. Can you be more precise as to which Oracle version you are using? There is a big difference between 10g Release 1 and 2. The version labeled 10g is for 10g Release 2, not 1. If you cannot upgrade your client or install a more recent instant client, use the 9i version.
Hope that helps. Anthony P.S. The best place to post questions about cx_Oracle is probably on the cx_Oracle mailing list.
