Object oriented python interface to library worked in Windows but not in Linux

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. create attributes self.streaminfo = StreamInfo( ...) and 
self.outlet=StreamOutlet(self.streaminfo)
2. Run on Windows 64.
3. Run on Linux 64.

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

Expected: a receiveable stream for test programs and python based recorder
Windows64: as expected
Linux64: stream is detectable also over the network/different platforms, header 
info is lost, connection impssoible

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Python toolbox 1.10.2 as said win64 and linux64

Please provide any additional information below.
I guess the method/function gets messed up with the first passed argument (the 
"self") and thinks this is the stream's name.
The problem was probably caused by me not thinking before implementing the 
functions as methods but I wondered, why it was working on Windows and not on 
Linux, maybe different versions of the libraries? Or something platform based I 
don't know....
