Two things come to mind: do you have different versions of pygame

This is a clever idea, but you got it backwards. A file called Pygame
will not conflict with pygame on Linux but will on Windows.


That is not really true. Windows may ignore case in a file name, but it does preserve it. And by default Python recognizes case in Windows. So there can be both a pygame and Pygame, just not in the same directory. Or one could be a module, with its .py suffix, the other a package.
