Hello. I’m having newbie trouble with 2 things right now and was wondering if anyone could help me out.
- I’m trying to install ¨fairymax". I downloaded the package from here:
Fairy-Max (at the very top of the page)
I extracted the archive, then in terminal cd’ed over to the folder and tried the install. But it didn’t work:
steven@linux-3kv4:~/Fairy-Max> sudo make install
root's password:
cc -O2 -s -DINI_FILE=\"/usr/share/games/fairymax/fmax.ini\" fairymax.c -o fairymax
make: cc: Command not found
make: *** [fairymax] Error 127
steven@linux-3kv4:~/Fairy-Max> sudo makefile install
sudo: makefile: command not found
steven@linux-3kv4:~/Fairy-Max> sudo Makefile install
sudo: Makefile: command not found
steven@linux-3kv4:~/Fairy-Max> sudo apt-get install fairymax
sudo: apt-get: command not found
steven@linux-3kv4:~/Fairy-Max> sudo zypper in fairymax

- In following the advice of answer D.6 here (I have GNUchess installed from a repo):
https://www.gnu.org/software/xboard/FAQ.html#tag-D.6
I tried to modify the icon of Xboard on my desktop folder. I right clicked the icon, clicked “properties” → “Application” … in the field “Command” I tried to change what was there “xboard” to "xboard -fcp “gnuchess xboard” but got an error along the lines of “Could not save properties. You do not have sufficient access to write to /home…/xboard.desktop” … I was logged in as sudo in terminal as well as logged in as admin to Yast when I tried this.
