Maybe it may be because > I was fiddling around with versions (from Ubuntu Repo, and Racket ppa) > I can think of two possibilities: - If you installed a "minimal Racket" distribution, you won't have the "games" package pre-installed. You can get it with "raco pkg install games" or the "File > Package Manager …" in DrRacket. - There are different ways of configuring your Racket installation that will end up putting your packages in different places on the filesystem, including user-specific vs. installation-wide places and self-contained vs. Unix-style installations. "Open Require Path" should find your packages wherever they are, but it takes a require path rather than a file system path, so it starts with `games` in this case. You can try this program: #lang racket (require games) If the package is installed, this should work and open the PLT Games launcher window. In DrRacket (after it has had a moment to do background expansion), you can also then right-click on `games` and choose the menu item "Open main.rkt". -Philip -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
