Solution 1
to correct No module named Tkinter and _tkinter
sudo apt-get install tk-dev
cd /Python3.4.1
./configure
make
sudo make install
Solution 2
Start at Zelle’s Python page at http://mcsp.wartburg.edu/zelle/python/.
The graphics module is listed as *graphics.py. RIGHT-CLICK on the link and then select >Save Link As
On a PC save the link in C:\Python31\Lib\site-packages
On a Mac save the link in
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.1/lib/python3.1/site-packages/
On Ubuntu save the link in
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
