Re: [pygame] Multisample in pygame

[Mark Halko <mhalko@xxxxxx>]

I'm running this on a powerbook running 10.3.
Previous messages on the sdl list make me think that multisampling not 
enabled on macs.  (as those were from 2002/2003, I thought that was 
fixed).
I'm using Bob Ippolito's pygame package including his SDL patches 
http://pythonmac.org/packages/.

As far as I can tell this works on linux. (oddly enough the glut 
version doesn't work, but I think that's some sort of weird older 
pyopengl problem).

I guess I should resort to searching through SDL code?
