Pypanel does not start

From the error output, I suspect a python-xlib error but I have no idea how to fix it.

keevn@fygor::pypanel                                                        [~]
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pypanel", line 957, in ?
    PyPanel(display.Display())
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Xlib/display.py", line 80, in __init__
    self.display = _BaseDisplay(display)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Xlib/display.py", line 67, in __init__
    apply(protocol.display.Display.__init__, (self, ) + args, keys)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Xlib/protocol/display.py", line 122, in __init__
    self.default_screen = min(self.default_screen, len(self.info.roots) - 1)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Xlib/protocol/rq.py", line 1371, in __getattr__
    raise AttributeError(attr)
AttributeError: roots

Any ideas?

Emmm Ok. try this Open the following file -
/usr/lib/python<version>/site-packages/Xlib/protocol/display.py
and change line 530 from -
recv = self.socket.recv(2048)
to -
recv = self.socket.recv(4096)

Great. Hade the same problem here, but was to shy to ask about it.
