well, linux doesn't come with it, but the distro does.Bruce wrote: Fragged, of course it has solitaire, hearts..........and all those simplistic windows type games.
SuSE comes with so many it's hard to count or list them all, not mention SuSE comes with some half way decent 3D games considering they are bundled games. 3d Flight simulator, 3d car racing game.................

way different. way better.goalguarder12 wrote: is linux like microsoft xp or somethin???
Then there is something seriously, I mean very, very wrong with the way your computer is configured.Red Squirrel wrote: I run a server with LOT of background tasks and it runs fine (the tasks) but doing stuff directly at the server such as opening a program takes several minutes.
what undocumented string is that? the --prefix option? that's there for everything. it's standard. do you want to see all the ./configure options? type ./configure --help. if you want double click, use rpms.Red Squirrel wrote: I'm talking something easy that anyone can use. Just double click the installer and boom, it's done. ./configure sounds easy, but every program is different, with apache,for example, there's this undocumented string you have to put after. I mean they put it in the documentation but they leave out crucial stuff. I just got lucky with my server that I found a forum where the right string was posted. suprisingly php and mysql went smooth after that.
Code: Select all
[prompt]$ ./configure --help
chmod: changing permissions of `conf3770.sh': Operation not permitted
`configure' configures this package to adapt to many kinds of systems.
Usage: ./configure [OPTION]... [VAR=VALUE]...
To assign environment variables (e.g., CC, CFLAGS...), specify them as
VAR=VALUE. See below for descriptions of some of the useful variables.
Defaults for the options are specified in brackets.
Configuration:
-h, --help display this help and exit
--help=short display options specific to this package
--help=recursive display the short help of all the included packages
-V, --version display version information and exit
-q, --quiet, --silent do not print `checking...' messages
--cache-file=FILE cache test results in FILE [disabled]
-C, --config-cache alias for `--cache-file=config.cache'
-n, --no-create do not create output files
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or `..']
Installation directories:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
[/usr/local/apache2]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
[PREFIX]
By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/apache2/bin', `/usr/local/apache2/lib' etc. You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local/apache2' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=$HOME'.
For better control, use the options below.
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data [PREFIX/share]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data [PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data [PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data [PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc [/usr/include]
--infodir=DIR info documentation [PREFIX/info]
--mandir=DIR man documentation [PREFIX/man]
System types:
--build=BUILD configure for building on BUILD [guessed]
--host=HOST cross-compile to build programs to run on HOST [BUILD]
--target=TARGET configure for building compilers for TARGET [HOST]

Some influential environment variables:
CC C compiler command
CFLAGS C compiler flags
LDFLAGS linker flags, e.g. -L<lib dir> if you have libraries in a
nonstandard directory <lib dir>
CPPFLAGS C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. -I<include dir> if you have
headers in a nonstandard directory <include dir>
CPP C preprocessor
Use these variables to override the choices made by `configure' or to help
it to find libraries and programs with nonstandard names/locations.

So is each individual computer/server, so is each individual person. Thats why the ability to configure the application the way you want, with the features you want is important.Red Squirrel wrote: I'm talking something easy that anyone can use.
