404 - Dependency issue?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

I currently have installed simplejson, httplib2, and python-oauth2.
Perhaps I'm missing some other dependency?  I'm new to this, so I'm sorry for 
such a dumb issue.

Code is below:

import sys
import twitter

def main():
  api = twitter.Api()
  statuses = api.GetPublicTimeline()
  print [s.user.name for s in statuses]

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should come back with some status updates, but I get this traceback instead.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "new.py", line 14, in <module>
    main()
  File "new.py", line 10, in main
    statuses = api.GetPublicTimeline()
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/twitter.py", line 1319, in GetPublicTimeline
    json = self._FetchUrl(url,  parameters=parameters)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/twitter.py", line 2030, in _FetchUrl
    url_data = opener.open(url, encoded_post_data).read()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 400, in open
    response = meth(req, response)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 513, in http_response
    'http', request, response, code, msg, hdrs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 438, in error
    return self._call_chain(*args)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 372, in _call_chain
    result = func(*args)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/urllib2.py", line 521, in http_error_default
    raise HTTPError(req.get_full_url(), code, msg, hdrs, fp)
urllib2.HTTPError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I'm using the last python-twitter on Linux Mint.

Please provide any additional information below.
If I try to authenticate, all of my requests come back as 401.
Thanks for your help!

if you don't authenticate then it will always return an error. 

I'm going to mark this as closed - if you still have trouble after getting your 
tokens from twitter *and* testing by doing the below, please reopen.

import sys
import twitter

def main():
  api = twitter.Api(consumer_key='your_key',
                       consumer_secret='your_secret',
                       access_token_key='token_key',
                       access_token_secret='token_secret',
                       debugHTTP=True)
  print api.VerifyCredentials()
