But the problem here is with .idlerc in your home directory.

Can you find that file and ensure that read/write permissions
are set? It may be a hidden file so you might have to tweak
the View settings.

.idelrc is presumably where Idle stores your local config settings.
Although I confess I never noticed it when I used Windows. But then I 
probably never had a need to notice it!
