FC4 (the latest finished one) has python 2.4.1 as part of the distro (I think RedHat actually use python for some of their scripts).
Just pull up a terminal and type 'python' and you should get the prompt... If you _are_ running FC4 and have more probs, feel free to drop me a line. at matt at mwilliams.org and I can try and help (since I am sat in front of an FC4 machine). WRT EMACS, I've never tried to get it going.... I use Eclipse and PyDev, or else SPE is worth a look.
