Posted: Wed Jul 28, 2004 5:19 pm Post subject: SOLVED: aislerot in gnome menu |
|
|
I just installed Gentoo+Gnome on my mothers computer because the things she does are all available under linux.
Now is one of the things she MUST have is a Solitaire card game (I will never understand why this game is still the number one played pc game on the world). No problem i thought, Gnome has Aislerot that has countless of those games. But now after 2 days fighting with udev, my hp printer, the nvidia card, alsa and the IDE controller, everything works smooth exept, yes you will guess it, Aislerot. I can't find it in my gnome menu (and I'm pretty sure it's in gnome-games, which is installed), locate does give me some docs and the portage patches, but where is the binary?
Can anyone please help me with this problem, you must understand that this is a live to death situation!
Tnx in advance

Ok, some more info:
the full path is "/usr/bin/sol"
and it belongs to the gnome-games package
Code: |
$ which sol
/usr/bin/sol
$ qpkg -f /usr/bin/sol
gnome-extra/gnome-games *
|
If you have that package the file should be there.
If you have no luck at all you might try

no sol here either. emerge -pv sol also throws up nothing. i have been using pysol instead of aisleriot, it's *almost* as good. |
