Solitaire


Hate to admit playing games but have noticed the Klondike version behaves rather badly and wondering how to resolve it other than remove/install.
The tools which are supposed to appear at the top either stop showing up completely with "no way" of exiting or show up only when I swipe over where they had been on the desktop. Save me from a remove/install please.

Hi...

Not sure I can help but what version of Fedora are you using and is the "Aisleriot Solitaire" package? Also, please start the game in a terminal and post any output you receive.

Perhaps there is another solitaire game out there to use if you don't want to reinstall it.

Regards...

Sorry 'bout that its Aisleriot Solitaire which I downloaded from the games page provided with Fed22.
There is NO error messages it just floats off and changes to as I described.
Would rather stick with this one for 2 reasons 1) pretty sure it was clean from Fedora and 2) I can win "about" 3 out of 20 when I use my method -- LOL. Actually strung 3 in a row too.

Hi...

By "tools," do you mean the toolbar at the top which has headings like "Game, View. Control, Klondike and Help?" Also, under "View," is both "Toolbar" and "Statusbar" checked? If not, check them and restart the game. Did that help?

If that didn't help, it may be a bug with the game in relation to Fedora. If you want to file a report, you can start here, or you can contact one of the Aisleriot program writers by clicking on "Help" and then "About." Then click on "Credits." If you click on Jonathan's name, you might get a mail window that comes up, if you have a POP client installed and configured. You can send him a message from there.

Regards...
