IDLE does not work unless _tkinter is installed (probably via Package 
Manager), which in turn requires Tcl/Tk Aqua ( http://tcltkaqua.sf.net/ 
).

However, the Python IDE should work.  Could you show us the output from 
Console.app ( /Applications/Utilities/Console.app )?  This should 
provide enough information to guess.

Oh, and I'm not familiar with OS X 2.3.1 :)  I'm guessing you meant 
10.3.1?  The "sw_vers" command line tool is the quick and easy way to 
figure out what OS you're running:

[crack:~/src/pyobjc] bob% sw_vers
ProductName:    Mac OS X
ProductVersion: 10.3.1
BuildVersion:   7C107
