While the Standard Python Library contains well over 200 modules, sometimes you'll need to install new ones. In particular the graphical user interface (GUI) module '
Tkinter
' and the impressively functional 'PyGame
' module can be missing. Assuming your Raspberry Pi has the official Debian-based Linux image on the SD card here is how you'd perform an install.
Boot up your Raspberry Pi and ensure it's connected to the Internet. Then open a new terminal window with the LXDE Desktop's '
Other->Terminal
' menu option. Now type the following Linux commands next to the '
$
' prompt, pressing the 'Enter
' key each time: $ sudo apt-get install python-tk
$ sudo apt-get install python-pygame
If prompted enter the password you used when logging on to your Raspberry Pi, and reply '
y
' to any prompts. read more of my Learn Python on the Raspberry Pi series
