Re: [LINUX_Newbies] KDE questions

If the game runs slowly on your machine then you might want to look at
alternatives. It runs fine for me on 12.04, 64-bit, but all machines are
different. It sounds more that it requires more resources than your machine
can deliver. There is xshisen and many other mahjong type games in the
repositories. I would not use Muon, BTW. I use either Synaptic or apt-get
and will not use Muon or Software Centre unless I have to.
