Hi Andrew,

I thought I had this problem beat, but for some reason it came back again.
I've mysteriously lost the ability to turn off the menu bar with two
screens, because I no longer seem to be able to access the macosx module in
pygame.  

The error I get is the following:

File "controlprotocol2.py", line 65, in ?
  pygame.macosx.app.mainMenu().setMenuBarVisible_(False)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'macosx'
warning: use func(*args, **kwargs) instead of apply(func, args, kwargs)

I've spent several hours of head-scratching on this one, and I'm stumped.
The thing I can think of is that I recently updated to MacOS 10.2.8 (I'm
still running 0.93 of VisionEgg for code compatibility).

I reconfirmed in the package manager that I've got the latest version of
pygame (pygame-1.5.6-binary) installed.  I've also reconfirmed that I'm
using the SDL framework you sent me.

My

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/site-package
s/pygame

looks like the following:

__init__.py         image.so            pygame_icon.tiff
__init__.pyc        imageext.so         rect.so
__init__.py~        joystick.so         rwobject.so
base.so             key.so              sndarray.so
cdrom.so            locals.py           sprite.py
constants.so        locals.pyc          sprite.pyc
cursors.py          mixer.so            surface.so
cursors.pyc         mixer_music.so      surfarray.so
display.so          mouse.so            surflock.so
draw.so             movie.so            time.so
event.so            pygame.ico          transform.so
font.so             pygame_icon.bmp     version.py
freesansbold.ttf    pygame_icon.icns    version.pyc

Should there be a macosx module in this directory that I've somehow
eliminated, or do you have any other ideas of what I might do to reinstate
this library?

Thanks for any thoughts you might have!

Mark
