Re: [pygame] SDL_VIDEO_CENTERED and Python 2.5

["Brian Fisher" <brian@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So what OS are you running?

Do you have multiple monitors now? Are you running an nvidia desktop
management tool or anything like that?

...From the output it seems your pygame is using 1.2.7, which should
be when support for the positioning environment variables was added to
windows... my machine is using SDL 1.2.13, which should be different
in that it uses windib instead of directx for the window - however
forcing directX on my machine still centers... you can try forcing
windib with SDL 1.2.7 by putting os.environ['SDL_VIDEODRIVER'] =
'windib' before pygame.init()

if you're on win or mac and are up for trying a unstable build from
svn with latest SDL, you can get an installer here:
