You should see why when calling setup.py in kaa.display. It should
print something like this:
| phex-> python setup.py install
| checking for X11 ... ok
| checking for imlib2 >= 1.1.1 ... 1.3.0
| checking for evas >= 0.9.9.010 ... 0.9.9.037
| checking for directfb >= 0.9.20 ... no
| checking for pygame ... not installed
| + X11 (imlib2, evas, evasGL)
| + Framebuffer (imlib2)
| - DirectFB
| - SDL
I guess in your case X11 was not found. I added some dummy classes to
kaa.display now to give a better error message. Maybe X11 header files
missing?

OK, I added a small patch to the global Freevo setup, it should work
now. The other solution is to set the PYTHONPATH variable. From the
python man page:
PYTHONPATH
Augments the default search path for module files. The
format is the same as the shell's $PATH: one or more direc-
tory pathnames separated by colons. Non-existent directo-
ries are silently ignored. The default search path is
installation dependent, but generally begins with ${pre-
fix}/lib/python<version> (see PYTHONHOME above). The
default search path is always appended to $PYTHONPATH. If
a script argument is given, the directory containing the
script is inserted in the path in front of $PYTHONPATH.
The search path can be manipulated from within a Python
program as the variable sys.path .
