problems using wxpython-2.8

[Mentaal]

Hi guys, I am new to this forum and am fairly new to python and wxpython.
The problem I am posting is most certainly not a new one and I have spent a long time looking for an answer in the forums but have thus far been unsuccessful.

Ok first of all I am using linux mint Julia (x64) and at present I am able to use python-wxgtk2.6 but recently I have wanted to try using a GUI builder like WXGlade but I believe that it requires python-wxgtk2.8. When I try installing this version and import wx in pythong i get the following traceback:

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 16:22:56)

>>> import wx

I have tried reinstalling wxpython but to no avail. Any suggestions will be most welcome

I have the same problem on my Ubuntu 11.04, 64 bits.

Due to this problem, I can not run playOnLinux.

Please, someone help on this !
