Summary: URLDragAndDrop does not work with Ubuntu 6.10 and Firefox

Initial Comment:
Hello!

There is not much to say but the URLDragAndDrop sample does not work at all on my system. Neither the dragging to the browser nor the dragging from the browser to the wxPython application.

The strange thing is that dragging a URL from the browser to the widget where you are supposed to _start_ a drag from the application works? It looks to me that something goes utterly wrong here.

Ubuntu 6.10, wxPython 2.8.0.1

Please let me know if somebody can reproduce this problem on Linux.

Best regards
Noel

It also doesn't work on Ubuntu 7.10 with wxPython 2.8.4
