I am running in ubuntu and I can code in python, without problem. I have tried to install pygame and to do make it so, I did:

sudo apt-get instal python-pygame

When I go into the python IDLE and write:

import pygame

I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in 
ImportError: No module named pygame

What can I do to solve this problem? I am forgetting something, or doing something wrong?
check that you are installing pygame for the right version of python. I think the pygame for python 2.7 won't work on python 3.3. I had the same problem but even after installing the right version it didn't work. So after a little googling I found that I was installing pygame meant for 32-bit but my os is 64-bit. so try to google "pygame for window 64-bit" or something like that. I hope it helps.
