 Dear All, I lost a very nice Hearts game when my Mandrake 7 crashed.
 I found the game on the internet today with my newly installed 7.2.
 It was from the same place that I downloaded before. When we opened
 the game the cards had no faces. I even went back and downloaded
 again another version and the same thing happened. Anything that I
 can do about this? Thanks. Marcia

 This is conjecture on my part, but I've found that a few older 
apps, particulary those for KDE1.x, either don't work or don't work 
properly with KDE2 and/or XF4.0.x.  I've had fewer problems with gnome 
apps, so it's prob'ly KDE2 and the new qt/qt2 libs.  Rather than tryin 
to hunt down the incompatabilities, edit makefiles, etc, I've just been 
finding replacement apps that don't have problems.

 Dear Tom  All, Is there another good Hearts game that will work well
 in KDE2? As far as I know the ones I found were the only ones and are
 not working well with my KDE2 in 7.2. That is the cards have no
 faces! This same Hearts game worked very well in 7 for me. Any
 suggestions? Thank you. Marcia

Which one (filename) do you have now?  All so since this might be a 
video problem, what video card?  and does it need a closed source 
driver?  ...  and have you tried a different resolutions and/or color 
depths?   Which X are you using ?, ie, 'X -version'
