Graham - Great post, I'll give mod_wsgi a try. Thanks.

And thanks for all the replies. Here's the configuration file I ended
up
using, which worked (kinda):

#------------------------
FILE------------------------------------------

LoadModule python_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_python.so

<Location "/mysite/">
    SetHandler python-program
    PythonHandler django.core.handlers.modpython
    SetEnv DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE mysite.settings
    PythonOption django.root /mysite
    PythonDebug On
    PythonPath "['/home/gte351s/dev/django'] + sys.path"
</Location>

#------------------------/
FILE-----------------------------------------

Just to make it clear for someone new to Django who reads this and
doesn't have
a clue (like me) on the details of the setup - my actual application
lies
under /home/gte351s/dev/django/mysite (that's the root), and I suppose
that's why the PythonPath needs to point one level above it. Once I
restarted
apache, I was able to access the app through http://localhost/mysite/

A couple of things I noted:
1. I had to explicitly write down the trailing slash in the url, or
I'd get
   an URLconf error saying the address was not found. In other words,
I had
   to type http://localhost/mysite/some-path/ to access r'^some-path/
$'
   whereas on the Django built in server, typing the address w/o the
trailing
   slash words just fine: http://localhost/mysite/some-path
   This could be just some configuration error on my part, I'm a real
newb.

2. I had some permission errors using Mako templates, but I think that
was b/c
   I didn't explicitly give read permissions to apache on the
django_mako dir.
   I didn't dig too deep there, but this should be an easy fix.

Thanks,
Shilo.
