Try turning on the antialiasing? I've seen cases where the smoothed font rendering works but the simple fails. This is some problem with SDL_ttf or freetype.
Ah. That makes it work.

This is probably from SDL trying to probe the different sound and video backends. It's usually fast, but it is finding some sort of partial match that slows it down. Try setting the environment vars SDL_VIDEODRIVER and SDL_AUDIODRIVER to the modes you are using. http://www.libsdl.org/cgi/docwiki.cgi/SDL_5fenvvars
Strange. I re-installed pygame for the fifth time and that problem went away. I have a feeling the link will prove usefull later though. Thanks!
