This means a call was made to pygame.display.quit() or pygame.quit(). If
you try to do anything to the display surface after quit you will get
this error.

You should include an excerpt from the code so we know what it is the 
program's doing at the failure point.
I would guess, from the error, though, it sounds like you already called 
pygame.quit() and you're trying to blit to the screen after
pygame uninitialized SDL.

Rect.union and rectangle positions

Does Rect.union ignore rectangle positions? That is, does it only 
return a rectangle whose width and height is the maximum of the 
widths and heights of the two compared rectangles rather than a 
rectangle that will actually cover the two rectangles as they are 
positioned?

Incarnation

I tried running this, but nothing happens when I try to log in. I tried 
both leaving the name/password blank, and a made-up pair, but both times 
the program just hung.

Re: Incarnation

Just tied it here and was able to connect. So maybe its a Firewall  
thingy on your side?

I experience a freeze after downloading the updates. I restart the  
game then the downloaded files will be moved to the target  
directories, then it hangs again. The third restart brings me to the  
login screen.

I did get through the "downloading files" part, and to the login screen. 
I'm running the standard Win XP firewall.

The game looks interesting, so I hope I can get it running. But then 
I've also been having problems with several other games, for no clear 
reason.

Seagame Demo 2

By the way:
http://kschnee.xepher.net/061201ship_demo.zip

There's the latest version of the "sea game" demo, source not included 
this time. (EXE only.) It's not much different than the previous demo, 
but has music and sound, Psyco-accelerated framerate, the ability to 
board and leave the ship, and different controls. (8-way movement when 
out of the ship, plus J to jump; Asteroids-like movement plus X&C to 
fire when in the ship; Enter to board/leave ship; Esc to quit.)

Kamilche might be able to give you any better solutions.
