I'm using the bigtest.gpe patch that came in your distribution, which has both toggles and number boxes.
 
Both the pygame testgame and the bigtest.gpe crash with any controls touched.

Hi Matthew,

The red square in the demo app means your pygame install is probably working
correctly. Don't change it. The white screen in gp2xPd means that it's probably
running properly. It sounds to me like my code is crashing, possibly because
you don't have any GUI elements (like a toggle) in your patch. Could you please
confirm for me whether you have any toggles in your patch?

Chris.
