[pygame] Pygame on 2nd monitor



Hello all,

I'm trying to run my pygame application on my laptop's VGA output so I have an "operator view" on the laptop screen and a "public view" on the external screen.  They are using two different processes and communicating via TCP so that's not an issue.  The only problem I'm having is that as soon as I drag the pygame window onto the second monitor it stops refreshing.  Through some experimentation it seems that if ANY portion of the pygame window is on the other monitor it stops refreshing.  Has anyone encountered this before?  Any thoughts on how to address it?  I've told Pygame to use the hardware accelerated surfaces and double buffering but no combination seems to help.

Thanks,
Scott
