 The file name is hearts-1.2pre3.tar.gz. Check it out. I found it at the

Yes I did. And, I was successful in having the .bmp image files of the
cards in the game moved to /usr/local/kde/share/apps
I thinks I am going to delete this folder and configure again. Once we
get this figured out, I will post the exact instructions for every one
to use.

Try looking in /usr/local/bin.  When installing from tarball, it
doesn't install it in the same place that RPMs do.

As your regular user, type these commands.

cd
source .bash_profile

I'm assuming you're using bash.

which app_name

It should do a quick scan of all the paths in your $PATH, and find that
the app is going to be in /usr/local/bin.

Give that a try, I tink that will fix your problem.

[newbie] Running ./configure, make and make install on card game in LM8

Hi everybody,

I downloaded a card game that was in tar.gz format to my /home
directory. I ran ./configure, make and make install. The make install
should have moved it to /usr/local. Not successful. Should I have copied
the tar.bz file to /usr/local, and then run /.configure, make and make
install? Any help would be appreciated.
