Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

These look like paths to source code. It seems you have installed the source code for supertux, and now need to compile the code to get an executable binary file.
bigrigdriver: Yes, they are paths to the source, but no, it doesn't really mean anything. It's just so that I'd know where in the source the message comes from.
It does seem odd that /usr/bin is in the search path rather than /usr/share/games/supertux2.
The main, fatal problem is with OpenAL and PulseAudio not liking each other. I know that OpenAL and PulseAudio have an unpleasant history with each other.. I don't use PulseAudio, so I'm not sure how to fix this.. maybe upgrade both and see what happens?
Please choose supertux-0.1.3-46.4.i586.rpm
( or supertux-0.1.3-46.4.x86_64.rpm if you have a 64 bit OS.)
And do not choose the package marked src,
is source code only.
