First question: what did you do?
# python
Python 2.4.4 (#1, Jan 2 2007, 19:55:21)
[GCC 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r3)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more
information.
>>> import time
>>> time.__file__
'/usr/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/time.so'
Make sure that file exists and that the files that it links to exist.
