Re: [pygame] Display set_mode FULLSCREEN hang

[Adam Li <adamli@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Rene,

Thanks for your reply. The little Atom board (it is a custom-built 
board) is running standard Windows XP.

pygame.display.list_modes() returns:

[(1280, 1024), (1280, 1024), (1280, 960), (1280, 768), (1280, 720), 
(1152, 864), (1024, 768), (960, 540), (800, 600), (800, 480), (720, 
480), (640, 480)]

The LCD is 1280x1024. I have tried to call set_mode with (0, 0), (1280, 
1024), and (640, 480) and all getting the same problem.

On a plus note, after a lot of tried this afternoon, I was able to get 
it to work by shuffling the order of the initialization code between 
pygame and other modules I am loading. So maybe the problem is with the 
conflicting access to resources, or something.

I am using pygame, PIL, and a webcam module called VideoCapture. Hope it 
helps.

Thanks,

Adam
