Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog Play Nintendo Super Mario Bros on Linux (Secret Mario Chronicles) and SuperTux Author : admin Are you looking for free software version of the old-school absolute Nintendo classic Super Mario Bros. ? :) If you're an old-school geek gamer like me you definitely do ;) I was lucky to find Secret Mario Chronicles a Linux version of Super Mario while I was browsing through all the available for installation Linux games in aptitude . The game is really great and worthy to be played. It's even a better copy of the classical arcade game than SuperTux (another Mario like Linux clone game) 1 / 3 Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog Both Super Mario Chronicles and Super Mario Bros are available for installation as .deb packages in the repositories of Ubuntu and Debian and most likely the other Debian direvative Linux distrubtion. To install and play the games out of the box, if you're a Debian or Ubuntu user, just issue: linux:~# apt-get install smc supertux The other good news are that both of the games's engine, music and graphics are GPLed :) To Launch the games after installation in GNOME I've used the menus: Applications -> Games -> Super Mario Chronicles andApplications -> Games -> Arcade -> SuperTux The games can also be launched from terminal with commands: 2 / 3 Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog debian:~$ smc debian:~$ supertux The only thing I don't like about Super Mario Chronicles is that it doesn't have a good music and only sounds, just to compare SuperTux has an awesome level music. Along with being an absolute classic I should say that these two games are one of the really good arcade games produced for Linux and if I have to rank them as a gamer among all the other boring arcade games today available for Linux this two ones ranks in the top 10 arcade games prdocuced for Linux Enjoy and drop me a thanks comment ;) ! 3 / 3 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

How to Turn Ordinary Linux to a Game Station / Best Games to Install and Play on Debian Linux
Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog How to turn ordinary Linux to a game station / Best Games to install and play on Debian Linux Author : admin Hereby in this article I'll in short give you a quick way to install a number of my favourite linux games. In my view the games I'm going to suggest for installation are actually among the best existent games you could install and play on a Linux Desktop today. Many people say/believe Linux does not have games, or the games for Linux/BSD are not fully featured and are not comparable to the ones for Windows, most of this sayings and beliefs are actually a fairy tales. I should admit of course that Linux is still lacking behind in its gaming capabilities, even quite behind any Windows platform (Don't get me wrong, I'm trying to be as much realistic as possible here in my estimation). However little by little year by year as time passes by with time the situation for the coming generation of Linux Gamers is gettings better and better!. The amount of free and non-free games is rising day by day, wheter many of the large game producing companies like Blizzard, ID Software etc. are producing ports of their proprietary games for Linux. Along with that the amount of Linux Enthusiast gamers and hobbyist is constantly increasing. At the present moment probably there are more than 5000 games for Linux! Many of that games count still requires heavy testing or are not yet production ready and therefore they don't make it as a packages in the general Linux distributions repositories.

Inspired by the runtime engine reference architecture[1] we set out to identify and group functionally distinct components that might be required to create a game like SuperTux. Having considered other architecture styles, such as object oriented and client/server, we determined that a mostly layered architecture would allow functionality to be further abstracted at each layer so that functionality at the top level could happen entirely in terms of game logic. This led to the development of an implicit invocation and repository hybrid architecture for communication between these high level components.

Tux Typing Free Download Tux Paint
tux typing free download Tux Paint. Tux Paint is a painting and drawing application for Windows PC. Tux Paint is compatible with almost every version of Windows for PC including Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows ME. This is ideal if a family's children are using an older computer for games and school work. Tux Paint is very kid-friendly, although grownups like it too. It has a simple yet colourful interface which is marketed to appeal even to very young children. One kid-friendly feature in Tux Paint is the autosave/recover option; things are never truly gone should the program be closed by accident. Children who are too young to read may use the program, and can come back to their art project by picking it out of the saved picture's thumbnail. Another feature of note to parents is the settings display - configuration is accessed apart from the drawing interface to prevent accidental setting changes. In this panel lies the ability to pick language, sound effects, and even what shows up in the drawing interface. Features for Tux Paint are numerous. There are Tux Paint stamps, designs, effects, colours and brushes of all types. It is geared toward child users exploring to find all the cool tools. In the recent past, 100 new stamps have been added, and there are now separate Tux Paint Stamps, which adds yet more options to unleash a child's creative side. That all said, Tux Paint is a bitmap type of graphics program. It was introduced to the consumer in 2002 and designed by Bill Kendrick.
