I've tried with relative paths, but this way I can't import the
pygame.camera module... "ImportError: No module named camera". I don't know
why... but it doesn't work. As you may see, I'm using my own version of
pygame, because the XO has only the 1.8 version, but I need the camera
module in the 1.9 version.
Apparently there is a problem with the imports, because sugargame package
import is working fine. I guess that when I do the "import pygame" it search
for the pygame in the XO instead the pygame in my activity, so when it look
for pygame.camea it doesn't exists. Even if I do sys.paht.insert(0, "lib")
the problem persist (lib is the folder where is my pygame 1.9).

In effect, I control the camera with PyGame 1.9 and control the mouse cursor
via XLib... but I think this is the usual (and unique) way... do you have
another idea to do this?

Thanks!
