I'm not asking for a collection of solitaries, i already installed pysol and it's great. But it lacks a feature that is essential to soften my dad's migration to linux: you can't play with one or two kinds (you know, hearts, spades, i don't know the exact english name) but only with 4 kinds. With 4 kinds winning odds are too low for my father and he complains about it (he actually has a brain even if my description of him is deceiving ). I even tried to run spider with wine but i can't get it to work...
do you know a spider clone with such a feature?

i had to edit

it was an OSX based solitaire game
sorry..



#edit again#

i have found another ... (for linux this time :P)
go here
i didn't try this one, just found it, so i don't know if it has the options to pick amount of suits to play with, but spider is included, so just give it a go ...

here's another ... its just a link to the tarball and its simply called spider

i've already tried xpat and doesn't have that option (yes i know i'm picky, but it's not my fault).

i can't build the spider tarball, it's different from the usual ./configure;make
I tried
$ xmkmf
mv -f Makefile Makefile.bak
imake -DUseInstalled -I/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config
In file included from /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/Imake.tmpl:2049,

Imakefile:1: invalid preprocessing directive #Run
Imakefile:2: invalid preprocessing directive #This
Imakefile:3: invalid preprocessing directive #to
imake: Exit code 1.
Stop.
$

but that was the error output i got.
