I recently installed Python 2.4 and PyGame using fink (the Debian- derived package manager) on Mac OS X (10.4.6 and 10.4.7). It was installed on PowerPC Macs (dual G5) and PowerBook G4 and ran fine. It was also installed on a MacBook Pro (duo Core Intel), but crashed with "Illegal Instruction". This note is about a work-around that allows PyGame to run on the Mac Intel platform. It also indicates more or less where the problem lies. I hope you find this useful.

This is probably because the version of PyObjC in fink is not really Intel compatible.
