I can't help much on the Windows side of things, but it's odd that
you're getting this Numeric error. Have you perhaps installed Numeric
for a different version of Python? (e.g. installed Numeric for Python
2.3 but are running Python 2.4?)
Another point: If you use the compiled version of the CDG player you
don't need Numeric, but you need to have a suitable C compiler
installed. Again, I haven't done this on a Windows machine, but I'm told
you'll need Visual Studio - presumably there's a free version with just
the compiler. And you'll need some development libraries, at least
SDL-devel. This is a bit more of a pain than just using the uncompiled
CDG player which requires Numeric.
Because my notebook has finally crept up on its "more than one year old"
mark, it's due for a full re-install (it has some fairly exotic hardware so,
as much to my surprise as to anyone else, even *Linux* is in need of a full
reinstallation on this thing) so Windows will be getting attention here in
about three days or so, and I'll have a chance to rebuild everything from
scratch. I'll explore this and get it tested; gimme about a week total to
get this documented and make sure it all works right (I'm tied up for a
couple of days with some other stuff but once I get this thing back on its
feet and myself unburied I'll have some time to devote to this).
