You installed a "custom" python 3.3, didn't you? So it does not help
installing Ubuntu's python3-tk: your python3.3 interpreter won't even
look into "system" packages.

Most probably, you need to install the proper development libraries and
*recompile* the Python 3.3 interpreter:

# apt-get install tk-dev

ciao, lele.

Ok, it now seems to work.  Weird.  I had tk-dev installed (it seems) and then 
after I re-compiled my interpreter just now, it's working.

Thanks for your help.

If your previous compilation was before tk-dev was installed, it will 
not have compiled _tkinter properly. On PC, one also has to re-compile 
after doing equivalent of downloading tk-dev.
