On my device it can't start because there is a bug in pygtk: line 82 of /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk2.0/gtk/__init__.py change init() to _init()

[edit] Installation

The following Om 2008.8 packages will have to be installed (source packages: python python-pygtk python-pycairo python-pygobject) (For Om 2007.2 you can use the ScaredyCat packages from Repositories.):

python-core python-misc python-lang python-pygtk python-distutils

Until there is an IPK for pyPenNotes, you may want to create a desktop icon manually.

Extract the files to a directory you wish (in the following example we use /media/card/install/pyPenNotes-0.3b/ directory).

Create the desktop file:

/usr/share/applications/pypennotes.desktop

With content:

0.1 (current) pyPenNotes-0.1.tar.bz2 initial release - can do nothing yet. :-)


Environment

For more, see Python.

The following archives will have to be installed (source packages: python python-pygtk python-pycairo python-pygobject):

If you want to test this and do not have a build environment, you can 'ipkg install' the python components from the ScaredyCat repositories.

NOTE: These packages take up a considerable amout of space (about 10 MByte), make sure that you have enough free space or install the packages to the media card as explained in package management.
