python2.5 crashed with Exception in _initHAL()

Binary package hint: python2.5

1/ Kubuntu 8.10 intrepid beta AMD64 Desktop on laptop Acer Aspire 5022WLMi
2/ python 2.5.2-11.1ubuntu1
3/ Using Adept Installer, I expected auto-installation of selected packages (ATI flgrx driver and Compiz package) and their dependencies
3/ Adept Installer started to download some packages (I could see libc and other stuff) then crashed. Now in Adept Installer I can read: "ATI binary X.org driver - broken"
