Re: [BLUG] Supertux game

Cool. Actually those levels should be available through any recently
packaged version. I was just using the normal version that comes with
Ubuntu 10.04. You go to the add-ons section int he menu and check for
online levels and then check all the ones you want (just check them all)
and then you go into the contrib menu and choose a world. You can also
find levels on a web search and put them in your .supertux2 folder.
There are some crazy ones out there.

Thanks for the tip, Mark! My guys love that game as well. I am in the
process of rebuilding the Linux machine at home now and will ask my
junior sysadmin (my 10 year old) if he looked at these levels. You are
talking about the developer snapshots, right?
