I did it like this - is this the correct way to do it ? _________________________________________________
What did you change in here to make it work ok (please) ? (but editing the .profile file worked) Needs to do - if it does not exist then add it - otherwise ignore it ...... # ~/.profile: executed by the command interpreter for login shells. # This file is not read by bash(1), if ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login # exists. # see /usr/share/doc/bash/examples/startup-files for examples. # the files are located in the bash-doc package. # the default umask is set in /etc/profile; for setting the umask # for ssh logins, install and configure the libpam-umask package. #umask 022 # if running bash if [ -n "$BASH_VERSION" ]; then # include .bashrc if it exists if [ -f "$HOME/.bashrc" ]; then . "$HOME/.bashrc" fi fi # set PATH so it includes user's private bin if it exists if [ -d "$HOME/bin" ] ; then PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH" fi _________________________ so I suppose you could say # set PATH so it includes /usr/games if [ -d "/usr/games" ] ; then PATH="/usr/games:$PATH" fi ____________________ - will this work ok .... ? JUST TRIED IT AND IT WORKS SO GUESS SO Now Alt+F2 works .... gbrainy ...... not that I use it .... but who knows - I might now, keith@keith-MS-7181:~$ gbrainy gbrainy 1.65 (built on 2011-04-11 01:01:38 UTC) Extensions database: /home/keith/.config/gbrainy Games registered: 157: 60 logic puzzles, 11 calculation trainers, 10 memory trainers, 76 verbal analogies Startup time 00:00:00.5510620 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Team UGR, which is subscribed to ugr-meta. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/778900 Title: Cannot start games, wrong $PATH Status in Ubuntu Gnome Remix Metapackages: Confirmed Bug description: can't start foobillard or any other game that is located in /usr/games ,from the menu or from any location Inside a terminal because /usr/games isnt't in the Environment Variable Path.
