Fedora :: Working With Educational Programs And Games
Feb 22, 2009I have in the past few months managed to get several people to switch to Linux just on the merits of its educational programs and games alone. Many people who are interested in educational programs for their children do not know where to find them for windows, and even when they do find them, they cost money, and might be worth nothing. So, i started looking into this on Linux, and did only minimal research on the available programs and games that are educational. I wound up already building 3 new computers that use Fedora, and getting several other people who already have a computer to switch to Fedora, just by making a video on how to use most of the educational programs that are available. This made it easier for those people to learn how to use the programs, especially for those that are not that intuitive, and it also showed them just what was available. [URL]

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: How To Install The SpringLobby Games
Nov 1, 2010I really don't get typing commands; I wish most things you could just kill "Download" then "Install" then "OK" like windows, but whatever. Anyway, I heard that Ubuntu has free open source games, especially RTS's and I was stoked. It said I had to download something called SpringLobby. I thought THAT was the game, but I downloaded it and nothing happened. Apparently, I need it to download games. So anyway, all I want to is download and play the games on this site [URL], especially Balanced and Complete Annihilation, but everytime I click on "Download" I get this error.

/tmp/JkVuiO8V.bin.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read. Try again later, or contact the server administrator. Is there anything I can do to install and play these games quick?
Ubuntu :: How To Install Games From Software
Jan 12, 2011We have some games that was installed with my win xp. Trying to switch over to ubuntu and did a fresh install which wiped everything and setup ubuntu. I have some sound on boot up, but was curious if our other games will work. I was able to get my train simulator installed but no sound. Here are my system specs: emachine desktop T3504, 3.20ghz, 533mhz fsb, 512kb L2 cache, 100gb seagate hard drive 2gb ram, Nvidia ge force 8400 gs 512mb ram. My sound was factory installed as a realtek HD audio. realtek 10/100 ethernet factory installed also. As far as boot up and connecting to the internet I am very pleased. I'm not a programmer but can install cards such as pci, ram. Got a bigger hard drive to put in but been having problems with pc trying to recognize it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Possible To Install Games From Synaptic / To Usb Stick Or External Hdd?
Dec 10, 2010Something that really irritates me in Ubuntu is the way these programs are being installed, because it takes disk space I don't have.In windows I can put all the files in the same folder and even choose where to install the stuff, but from synaptic in ubuntu all the game file are being installed in 100 different folders. games are huge and the more you build them up and save (maps, savefiles etc) the more disk space will be used (obviously).When I had windows I used a USB stick to save my current game on to and simply removed it them when I was ready for the next game.Because, usually I don't finish more than 1, 2 or 3 games at the same time.
Now, in linux most of the games are open source and are therefor always out with new versions or maps and other extras. This makes the game folders bigger.Another problem I see with the linux way of installing games is that when I once in awhile take a iso backup using Remastersys, it goes way above the top limit (4gb or something).I mean that we can't install the things wherever we want. I mean the programs are not a big deal because they are small, but games are huge and bigger the more you add to them.

May 24, 2010I'm brand-spanking new to Ubuntu and so far am greatly enjoying this magnificent OS. Though, after attempting to install Wine, I now this error when trying to install any program: 'E:Type 'main' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-wine-ppa-lucid.list, E:The list of sources could not be read.'
Here is the source list where I'm assuming the error is coming from:

Ubuntu :: 9.10 - Cannot Get Programs To Install
Jun 1, 2010I started using Ubuntu a few days ago due to a classmates recommendation, and I simply cannot get this program I need for class to install. Or if it does, I don't know how to make it work.
I've got to install VMWare Server 2.0 for my class so we can make virtual computers and what not. But, no matter what I do I can't get it to install. Whenever I try to install it like I was told on various websites (here's one for examples sake [URL], I do this: sudo ./vmware-install.pl and get this: Can't install perl script "./vmware-install.pl" : No such file or directory
I've tried putting in stuff like home/computername/Desktop/vmware-install.pl, but I still get the same problem. I've racked my brain and my browser trying to figure this out, but I've had no luck.

May 13, 2011I decided to download Blender as a tar.bz2 file from the site instead of using synaptic (synaptic had an older version)What is the best place to extract such a program? Right now, I just made a folder in my /home/ directory and extracted there. It works, but I want to know if that's the "right" way to do things.I've read the explanations of linux file system folders, but this is my first practical application of that stuff, and I'm confused.Am I supposed to put it in /usr/ or /opt/ or something?

P.S i have already tried installing in terminal but failed miserably...
Ubuntu :: Can't Install Some Programs In 64 Bit Lucid
May 1, 2010so i just did a fresh install of lucid last night. it went relatively well, but there's a few minor issues.. one of them being that i can't install certain software from ubuntu software center because it tells me that the program isn't offered for amd64.
for example, when i try to install skype, it tells me
Quote:
Sorry, 'skype' is not available for this type of computer (amd64).
i even downloaded the 64 bit skype from the website, but when it doesn't want to install that either and just leaves me with a broken package.
the thing is, these programs that won't install with lucid worked perfectly with karmic.. so i guess it has something to do with lucid..

I did, and it says it will NOT install any programs downloaded from the internet. I thought 'fine, I guess they have to be retail games' so I popped the disk in and it tells me the same thing. Any exe program I EVER try to install from anywhere is just BLOCKED: WINE START UNIX. Why is this happening?
