I cannot install pygame on cygwin properly. I tried to follow that old doc , http://msdl.cs.mcgill.ca/people/tfeng/svmsccdoc/node49.html, but it doesn't work.

Worse issue is SDL not be able to install correctly

Any helps are welcomed as I've been struggling for days.

One way to deal with that is to install the python binaries for windows.

Once the python binaries installed, install the pygame binaries for Windows as well and then run the python binaries from your cygwin console.

Then open a python console and type 

import pygame

Just to rule out one of the simplest things: Have you installed the cygwin Packages "libSDL-devel" and "libSDL1.2_0"?

Are you running 32bit cygwin or 64bit cygwin?
