Ok, I solve this by myself, and here is how I did it;

*_Problem:_ *No new terminal windows when closing old one with rbscrobbler?

*_Solution_: *All you need to do is kill all python prosesses

$ ps -aux

janne 8418 1.0 1.3 51792 13648 pts/0 Sl 01:32 0:00 python /usr/localjanne

$ kill -9 8418

*+*

$ ps -aux |grep py

janne 7864 0.0 1.9 35348 19788 ? SNs 00:22 0:01 /usr/bin/python 
/usr/bin/rhn-applet-gui --sm-client-id default4

$ kill -9 7864


After that everything works fine.
