Hi,
I've just started testing the latest pygame build on vista basic.
- python 2.5 requires a restart of the computer after installing!!! ouch.
- the pygame installer brings up a bunch of messages about things it can't do... but then manages to install ok. I think it's trying to do things like set registry keys, but vista is blocking it. I think this is more the fault of the distutils install maker. Anyone know about changes needed for vista installers? For most installers vista pops up a message about "do you trust this installer". This doesn't happen for the pygame one... so maybe we have to ask vista for permission.
So the installer doesn't create a menu item, or install the uninstaller... and probably other magic I'm not sure of.
I tried a few things, and they all seemed to work fine on vista. Luckily the pygame installer doesn't require a restart like the python installer does :)
