Hi Lenard, Thanks for the hint. No, I didn't run config.py, that might have helped (or at least it would've given me useful hints as to where I currently stand). After un-/reinstalling of Pygame and the SDL stuff it finally worked. I installed pygame using the link http://pygame.org/ftp/pygame-1.9.1release-py2.6-macosx10.5.zip which seemed to do the trick. Apparently my original pygame installation came from a different source. Best regards, Johannes
