hi shadow troop.... You need to post your exact puppy version or people won't be able to respond.

And there is 'frets on fire' already in the games section

i didn't see your puppy version there Smile

Armagetron Advanced is in the lupu520 ppm. But you will need to enable the ununtu repos. Open the PPM (puppy package manager) click on configure, then tick the lucid and the three ubuntu's, make sure the rest are unticked, and then press ok (DO NOT PRESS UPDATE!!)
Then exit the PPM completely. When you restart the PPM the ubuntu repos will be available. Type 'armag' in the search box, and Armagetron will come up. After you've clicked on it, choose the 'examine dependencies' option, then download and install.

Note :to get it work from the menu, open /usr/bin and open /usr/games so you have 2 windows open, and drag and drop the 'armagetronad' script from /usr/games to /usr/bin and choose 'link relative.' It will now work from the menu..... you will also need your graphic drivers installed.

You may also be interested in another tron game in the PPM 'GLTRON' also works in lupu. This will also need linking to /usr/bin to work from the menu.
