I dislike installers immensely. If an application has to touch anyplace outside where the user puts it, it had better have a damn good reason! Linux gamers are probably the smartest people in the world. If they're okay with finding the exe inside a folder, then that just saves me a step. This results in a better formed question: Can I get all the pygame parts (including things like numpy/numeric) into one location and rely on a distro's Python to just work? I'm pretty sure my python code is compliant back to 2.3. >From casual searching, it seems like I may have to build some of pygame's >parts for specific distros. A pain, but only once per distro. Thanks for the list of the distros most important. Keith
