lisalisa's questions

I want to play OMG!Words (Check the last game in the article) but I can't get it to run because it needs LOVE 0.7 and the ppa I added has the latest stable version, LOVE 0.8.0. My version of Ubuntu is Precise Pangolin (12.04 64-bit). When I checked the launchpad for LOVE (Launchpad for LOVE), 0.7.1 was only available for Ubuntu 10.04 and I do not want to risk breaking my repositories by using it. The game starts out fine, until it tries to download the dictionary for it. I want to either install the version of LOVE it needs or try another way to get the game to run. Any help would be much appreciated.

Note: To anyone who looks at this question, here's some screenshots of what happens when I try to use the version of LOVE for Precise.

I have a program called BridgeM1. It is a front-end for the arcade music emulator M1. I read at the following link ( M1 and .lst files ) that I could use this program in WINE. The problem is I'm not sure how to run it. It did not come with an installer. To run it under Windows, you just had to extract the files into a folder and then double-click the .exe to run it. I tried setting the file permission "Allow file to be run as executable" in Properties but when I right-clicked it and ran it with Wine Windows Program Launcher, it displayed a window at the bottom of my screen saying "Opening bridgem1.exe" and then after a few seconds nothing happens. Double-clicking the file only displayed a brief terminal window which promptly closed. Do I have to extract the file where my WINE folder is at?

I changed my password a few months ago from the password I first used when I installed Ubuntu on my machine. I tried to add a Google Talk account to Empathy, but every time Empathy gives me a message saying the following:

Enter password to unlock your login keyring

The password you use to log in to your computer no longer matches that of your login keyring.

I do not remember my original password and I'm not sure if I should go to Prefrences > Passwords and Keys and delete my login password or if there is a way to change the keyring so that it matches up with my current password.

I have searched around the net for a solution to my problem. I gave myself an account user name for facebook so I could use the chat in Pidgin 2.10.3. However, no matter what I do, Pidgin refuses to enable the account and it gives me the same message:

[email protected]/Pidgin disabled Not Authorized

I used the tutorial on at this blog: http://poppleit.com/how-to-howto-use-facebook-facebookchat-facebook-chat-with-pidgin-instant-messenger-14-07-2012/#comments

I checked the Additional Drivers offered for my card and I saw four options:

• NVIDIA accelerated graphics drivers (version 173)
• NVIDIA accelerated graphics drivers (post-release updates) (version 173-updates)
• NVIDIA accelerated graphics drivers (version current) (Recommended)
• NVIDIA accelerated graphics drivers (post-release updates)(version current-updates)

I'm not sure which one to pick. I want a driver that's stable but also takes advantage of my card's hardware.
