Bad attribute error on Ubuntu when trying to select any menu item #49

Using ubuntu 20.04.5 and python 3.8 I was able to install this code and start it, and I see the GUI. But when I select any menu item, no matter what, the code crashes with the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "python_easy_chess_gui.py", line 3578, in <module>
    main()
  File "python_easy_chess_gui.py", line 3574, in main

This is the current fix, if you are interested. It involves revising the pysimplegui.py
