Game: Haven and Hearth
Errors running it
(edit) it runs after installing the 3 synaptic results for "jogl"
(edit2) up to the login screen at least, then some generic java permission error is displayed. (the relevant part does not fit into the screen)
Game: Haven and Hearth
Managed to run it, but with errors
I have found this on the web
code:
javaws http://www.havenandhearth.com/java/haven.jnlp
it gets almost there, but then it errors out

Removed the second link; Problem with the first link may be caused by the havenandhearth.com server, which looks down at the moment I'm writing this comment. Let's see if it will work when the server goes up.

I have tried both links, but one is dead, and the other one does not work

Strange indeed, it seams that the Go Ollie! page was not indexed. I havn't noticed anything like that before, maybe its the case for other pages too.
EDIT: Rebuilding the search index did help.

For some reason search phrase 'ollie' does not find "Go Ollie!" game

If my sources are correct, this game started out on /a/
I was pleasantly surprised to find that not only is it an engaging game, but it also uses renpy.
Game: Freedoom
That is strange, if you
That is strange, if you install freedoom for debian, prboom and timidity are dependencies and are installed with freedoom. I would have expected the same for ubuntu.
Anyway, prboom seems to be the right choice.

???
So, the single-click-install-for-ubuntu installs 'freedoom' project, but that is only a WAD data file. How to play that ? What to install next to play it ? Recommended are 'prboom' or 'doom-engine', but which to use ?
So I installed 'prboom', and now it looks better, that's something that can be played. So I run it and get hangup in few seconds. What now ? So I google for solution, and I find that on Ubuntu Hardy it just happends. One fix is to install 'timidity' MIDI music package, other is to play without sounds with "prboom -nosound". ( https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/prboom/+bug/139955 )
This should be added to installation information.
Which doom engine do you use ? prboom or something else ?

There are prebuilt BOR Ubuntu
There are prebuilt BOR Ubuntu packages found on the web, but I would recommend you to use OpenBOR (at least it works better on my machine), you can get it at lavalit.com (registration required). You can compile OpenBOR yourself, or you can get prebuilt package (you'll find corresponding topic on lavalit.com);
However, if you really need original BOR engine for some reason, then you'll have to deal with Watcom C compiler and assembler.
