The patch that Carrie posted (post #10 above) worked for me on Ubuntu 12.04. I'm a novice Linux user, so most anyone should be able to apply her patch. Here is what I did.
1. Uninstalled Gnome-Games completely. 2. Downoaded gnome-games-3.6.1.tar.xz from http://www.linuxfromscratch.org. 3. Extracted the tar file to the /tmp directory. This extracted a diretory named "gnome-games-3.6.1" containing all of the files needed to install Gnome Games. 4. Navigated to the subdirectory named "glines", and then opened the subdirectory named "src". 5. Added the additonal lines of source code from Carrie's patch to the file named"glines.c". I added just the lines with a plus (+) sign in front of them. 6.Navigated back to the parent directory (gnome-games-3.6.1), and then ran the following commands to install Gnome Games. After the install completed, I had to reboot before I could see the games in Dashboard. ./configure make sudo make install -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/995281 Title: glines segfault To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnome-games/+bug/995281/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
