Won't run on Ubuntu 11.04 x64

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install XBMC from their PPA / Unstable
2. Install RCB from within XBMC
3. Script Failed.

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

Script not failed.

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

Ubuntu 11.04, latest XBMC, current RCB

Please provide any additional information below.

The first failure was in default.py attempting to identify the system as 64 bit 
(some kind of issue in platform). I just commented that and set it to 
Linux64... that gets it past there, but then there's an issue in the bowls of 
gui.py which is beyond my grasp. Ubuntu 11.04 uses python 2.7, if that has 
anything to do with it. I also just may be missing libraries. Not sure.

Yes, this may be missing libraries or incompatible libraries with python 2.7. 
Do you see any error messages in log file that you could post here?

I am (possibly) experiencing this problem as well.

What version are you using? I hope that I fixed this issue with version 0.8.10. 
You can install version 0.9.3 from zip file or wait some days until it hits the 
repo.

I used version 0.8.9 from the repos. I'll test the new version over the weekend.
