Yes, but pygtk must be compiled with libglade support to make it work. 
As gtk+ now includes gtkbuilder it's quite possible that you got a 
module without such support. You need to check if slackware includes 
glade support in the pygtk package.

You don't need any patch, just a recent pygtk version, the glade ui 
designer to open your glade file and save it in gtkbuilder format intead 
of libglade format and do minor changes to your code so it uses 
gtk.builder instead of gtk.glade. If you are used to using libglade you 
shouldn't have problems converting your code to gtk.builder.

You have some examples in the pygtk.org website and the pygtk reference 
has gtk.builder documentation.
