Forgot to mention:  callling python "grating.py" or any other demo, does
bring up the Graphics Configuration Dialog Box.  I say OK to the default
values.

Hello everyone,

I've just downloaded the Vision Egg software with source code and demos,
and I'm eager to see what it can do.  Coming from the world of C, Java, and
(now) some lisp, I have never used Python or OpenGL, but I am eager to
learn!

That being said, I've already encountered a problem running the demos.
I've gone through the step-by-step Windows installation guide (I'm running
XP), and everything seems to have proceeded without a hitch.
check-config.py also confirms that everything is OK, with the exception of
the optional modules Pyro and winioport which failed.

Going to the demo directory from the command prompt and trying to run the
demos, results in the following:

----- Begin -----
C:\visionegg\visionegg-0.9.5b3\demo>python grating.py

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

C:\visionegg\visionegg-0.9.5b3\demo>
----- End -----

Any idea on what's going on or suggestions?

I'm running Windows XP.  The version of everything I installed is the
version that is directly linked from the Windows Install page:
http://www.visionegg.org/install-windows-details.html

Thanks for the help!

Hmm, looking at the output of check-config.py again, it has listed:

VISIONEGG_USER_DIR = H:\VisionEgg

which doesn't exist; everything has been installed to the C: directory.
Might this have something to do with the problem?  If so, how do I change
this?
