Re: [Freevo-users] Freevo-1.8.2 can't launch Generic Games

Basically the game menu has a launching program with a list of games that can be launched from it (designed I'm guesing for game emulators). So if you want to launch just a game you need to trick it into opening a game file. The [ 'tux' ] part of the argument tells Freevo to look for files with the extension .tux Hope I'm right, and hope this helps Thanks, but this is exactly what I did, Anyway i've go a doubt: the file: /etc/freeov/games/tuxracer/tuxracer.tux is just an empty file, or a link to the game's executable? thanks again -- ___ Freevo-users mailing list Freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users

There was a bug in the generic type between 1.8.0 and 1.8.3. I am pretty sure it was fixed by .3 but can't remember when it broke. You might try updating to 1.8.3.
