Found it.  The import statement changed to "import _thread" for python3.

Actually, that should give you a strong hint that you shouldn't be
using that module. The leading underscore says that the module is
private/internal. The thread module's docstring under Python 2
suggests that you should instead be using "import threading", which
works on both versions.

Just curious...  Ubuntu 3 -- Are you really running a version that old, or is that a typo? 
Current version is 14.04

OT and FWIW:  I gave up on Ubuntu when they switched to Unity -- I find that very awkward to 
use.  Just personal opinion, of course, and I know there are others who like it -- that's fine 
with me as well.  (But I switched to Mint.)

Likewise, though with me it was Debian I went to, with Xfce as my desktop.

must be a typo, the first release of unbuntu was 4.10 (numbering is 
Year.Month)

You possess a mind not merely twisted, but actually sprained.
