find the games in two ways.<br>
<br>
One is to go to the window manager, select 'games' and click on Aisleriot.<br>
<br>
The other, less in the windows style but more like an xubuntu person would want to do it,<br>
is to open a terminal, perhaps with control-althernate-t), or again through<br>
the window manager (under accessories --> terminal emulator), and then look what all is<br>
available by typing:<br>
<br>
ls /usr/games<br>
<br>
On my system I have lots of possible games, 71 in fact. The one that gives me freecell is 'sol'.<br>
<br>
Next he should type is: ls -l /usr/games/sol<br>
<br>
He should see something like<br>
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 281904 Mar 10 2014 /usr/games/sol<br>
<br>
Then he simply types 'sol'; if his system is set up te same as mine, it should bring up all the<br>
Aisleriot games including freecell. Mine already starts with freecell.<br>
<br>
Maybe his system is set up slightly differently. He might have to type<br>
./sol<br>
<br>
or maybe even<br>
<br>
/usr/games/sol.<br>
<br>
Wish him bonne chance. Freecell is my favorite game too<br>
