[ myke @ 20:07 ] Need timidity on linux

if you're trying to play Pratfall! on linux and having weird crashes and no music, make sure you have timidity installed.  the game uses midi files for music and although it's not super clear from the pygame docs this requires timidity to be installed on your system.  apparently it doesn't just fail gracefully if timidity isn't present.  windows doesn't need anything else since windows comes with a softsynth in the base operating system.
