does this work for you? It should show a window with text on a red
background for 3 seconds.

from gtk import *
window = GtkWindow()
text = GtkText()
window.add(text)
style = text.get_style()
print "before realize: colormap = ",style.colormap
window.realize()
print "after realize: colormap = ",style.colormap
red = style.colormap.alloc(0xFFFF, 0x0000, 0x0000)
text.insert(style.font,style.black,red,"Hello")
window.show_all()
import signal
signal.alarm(3)
mainloop()
