import pygame
pygame.init()

Run this in a loop and you'll get:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~>while :; do python foo.py; sleep 1; echo foo; done
foo

I was seeing this problem starting the singularity game too. When it occurs
there the game fails to start up and throws a backtrace:

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: XDM authorization key matches an existing client!
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "singularity.py", line 28, in ?
    pygame.key.set_repeat(1000,50)
pygame.error: video system not initialized

So it seems that this can happen both in pygame.init and it later pygame
method calls like set_repeat. pygame.init seems to catch the exception;
other things don't.
