[visionegg] Re: pygame errors: FONT : not found

I am not an expert at compiling pygame, and I'm wondering if a more
python-developer style group would help.

The comp.lang.python group (which can accessed through google groups or
usenet) may prove useful for this.  That list has a large number of python
users and developers on it and the replies are generally quick.

Also, you can access live support through IRC:

Server: irc.freenode.nete
Port: 6667 (default)
Channel: #pygame
Link: irc://irc.freenode.net/pygame

Or, the pygame mailing list archives/posting may help.

Pygame-users@xxxxxxxx


Cheers,

Kevin
