Firstly, welcome Mothergoose!

Have you tried to "sudo apt-get install (insert python-imaging package name here)" from the command line? That will install the proper version for V5 of the firmware. Pretty sure the repositories are good in V5 to at least get this installed. There are threads about additions that can be made to the repositories, and how, that you can get to later. First we need to get you reading!

Then I would follow the link in JamesFlames posting, above this one, to pull down the correct version of Comix 4. At the site for Debian that he points you to you can search for different packages and grab the one that is proper for your hardware/software. You could probably search for the python-imaging package there too and pull them both from the same site!

Once you have the correct versions pulled down you should be able to click and get the installer running.

One last thing, you have read about increasing the size of your "loop" file before installing a bunch of apps right? If not hop over to smartqmid.com and do a little searching. Another fantastic resource for these devices.

Hopefully I did not throw too much junk out at once! If so, just yell. There are quite a few of us that live at both sites who are more than willing to lend a hand.

Enjoy!
