Looking for testers - gcompris

[Tricia Bowen]

Hi Bruno,
My kids are big fans of GCompris. A few minor things:

   1. Discover the Computer -> Numbers with Dice
      1. The counter goes pass 10 to 11/10 before the smiley face appears.
      The counter start with 1/10 instead of 0/10 which could be the problem.
   2. Discover the Computer -> Make the ball go to Tux
      1. I couldn't figure out how to work this but my 5 year old used the
      shift key. Maybe add the word shift after the up arrows for us
grown-ups. I
      realize this might be a language specific feature.

I'll go through the rest of it when I have a chance.
