In Ubuntu, for example, pygame is no longer included for python2.4. There is a solution though, and it is to download the 1.0 beta 10 p version of SoundRTS which was accidently compiled for python2.5. You can get it here: http://jlpo.free.fr/soundrts/py25/ Then, to launch, use python2.5 soundrts.pyc I hope this works for you. Happy gaming. you are probably using a new version of your os.

This means you will need to rebuild Speakup for the new one. To di this open terminal and: cd speakup/src make sudo make modules_install sudo depmod -a At this point, you can start speakup again. Thanks goes to Paul Hunt for this info. If Speakup stops working and you have recently gotten updates, it is probably because the kernel has been updated.

It's great that it works in Kubuntu. Hopefully Orca will work in Kubuntu one day. I'd like to try out KDE, I have heard some good stuff about it. I am glad you got it working.

As noted above, use 'git clone', without the '-', and you forgot to 'cd espeakup-0.71' (and we're at 0.71 aready!). I tried like heck all day to get speakup working, and finally just took your advice, which pretty much just worked. By the way, it works in Kubuntu 9.04. Thanks for the tutorial!

I have changed the post to reflect this. I have been working with other games and forgot that there is no shortcut for Solitaire. Also, a few people have sent emails and I have changed accordingly. the main change is that the svn command creates the open-sapi directory, so I took out the command that creates it from the instructions. Now, there should be only one open-sapi directory instead of two. Thanks for the correction. I have changed the post to reflect this.

I got this game working and a few others too. I have to point out that there is no shortcut created on the desktop when solitaire is installed. It is in the wine menu in programs. There are 3 options. You can play with Jaws Windowseyes, or sapi. Sapi is the 1 you need Thank you so much! I got this game working and a few others too.
