This should not be a problem. The important thing are the .dll files and the .py files. > Plus, do I also need to execute this on xterm? I am not sure how Cygwin's pyGTK is compiled (specifically, if it uses X11 or Windows directly). I compiled pyGTK and its dependencies myself on Cygwin; it uses Windows directly and therefore doesn't need xterm. The easy thing is for you to try on xterm and see if it works there. Anyway, the error message you're getting says that you cannot import gobject. My directory containing the gobject stuff looks like this: $ ls /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0/gobject/ __init__.py _gobject.dll* constants.pyc option.pyo __init__.pyc _gobject.dll.a* constants.pyo propertyhelper.py __init__.pyo _gobject.la* option.py propertyhelper.pyc _gobject.a constants.py option.pyc propertyhelper.pyo If you have these files (again, only the .dll and the .py files are important here) in the same directory, you should be able to do >>> import gobject at the python prompt.
