Well, frozen-bubble runs great, I played it yesterday :-) It's quite a neat
game, especially considering it's GPL licensed and written in perl ;-)

For the braves who want to try it on YDL 2.3, I've put up some packages
here:

You'll need perl-SDL, some updated SDL* packages, and possibly to update
perl in order to satisfy the rpm 4.1 automatically generated dependencies.

I'd be very interested in feedback about those packages and how their
installation goes!

Gotta test armagetron now, but with the integrated ATI Rage II chip, I
doubt I can actually get something playable anyway ;-)
