Hi,

Okay, I don't know all the answers you would like to have, but for
starters ...

The CVS of freevo is undergoing a very heavy restructuring of the core
components. The game part is still untouched AFAIK so that it does not
work is not really astonishing.

I can't reproduce this problem, but this is because no old version
freevo anymore. So can't help here, sorry.

First of all: The new display imlib2 definitely is for X11 what you
want. It fits much better into the new core design of freevo.

According to your configuration every thing looks fine, but that seems
not to be the case, what makes this mistakes quite strange. Just one
package is missing in your list: Did you install pygame (maybe a stupid
question I know)?

Normally there should be just two reasons, why there is no pygame
support in pyImlib2:
1. no SDL resp. pygame installed        or
2. the installed SDL library is to old. pyImlib2 requires SDL 1.2.5
   (sdl-config --version)
