I have tried it and as soon as you try any of the examples  in the 
examples dir it cannot find numpy etc....

I have manually move the pygeo dirs and contents to 
/usr/lib/python2.6/dis-packages,

  (this is the directory where numpy, numeric and scipy were installed 
when using synaptic )

  made sure that    read and write permissions set for ALL FILES and 
DIRECTORIES to RW using sudo chmod 777

any ideas.
