Wammu (mobile phone manager) - not loading

English Applications
#1

Hi all,

I have installed the Wammu application from the Yast manager.
I am using Opensuse 11.3, with KDE.

when I have typed in Wammu in the terminal the following error occurs.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/wammu", line 31, in <module>
    import Wammu.Locales
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/Wammu/Locales.py", line 31, in <module>
    import wx
ImportError: No module named wx

Can someone please assist me in decoding what this error means and how to fix it.

It looks like you don’t have the Python wx module. You can install the module by doing this (as root user):

zypper in python-wxGTK
