Supertuxkart and many other games use OpenGL, which requires hardware 
acceleration in order to give acceptable performance.  This isn't provided by 
the opensource radeon and nv drivers, which use software acceleration, which 
sucks even on higher end systems.

It is funny - I actually BOUGHT a few games last year for my Win2K system. I 
thought they'd be cooler than the OSS stuff I have now

...how wrong I was. 

SUSE includes some very creative and well-played games.

I wonder why one would need to have a proprietary driver over another one in 
order to effecively play a game.

Can someone explain by chance?

After upgrading to the proprietary driver using sax2 and activating the 3D 
accellarator, I finally can play it. Cool!

  I don't play that game, but I'm always playing Freecell on Pysol, and I 
think this is pretty darn good and braggable:

  

  I also had a competition between a friend and I playing Shisen-Sho...after 
about 6 months of us going at it, my fastest time was 44 seconds. He kicked

Using rpmfind.net I found plib that provides those packages.
I was ready to play :)
But, then it failed with:

Maybe it's because I don't use ATI proprietary driver?

Thank you Ben Kevan for pointing out the rpm. But, I just download the rpm and 
not adding 10.1 as repository because I'm afraid it will conflict with SLED 
repo?

So I did a manual installation:
fajar101:/home/fajar/Documents/source # rpm -ivh 
supertuxkart-0.2.0-1.1.i586.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libplibfnt.so.0 is needed by supertuxkart-0.2.0-1.1.i586

Where can I find the dependencies? Seems like I cannot find it in Yast (DVD).

I cannot seem to be able to find Super Tux Cart in my SLED10. I've checked the 
Yast. Is it only on OpenSuse?

Bwahahahaha!  

I'll be sure and mention that to upper management when they're wondering if 
the $11.8M we took in this month is correctly assigned to the right accounts 
in my system. :P

It is a great stress reliever - particularly when your SQL Server replication 
isn't working for some reason.

No!! Tux cart is much more important. I can't get below 8, but haven't 
played in a while.. ;-)
