I'll take an ounce of whatever you're smoking

Also, Ubuntu 10.0 does not exist.

have a nice day

Of course ... the next upgrade of Ubuntu goes to 10.04 Alpha (testing) on December 3rd.

hi kntbrat

There have been a lot of trolls here recently.
I wasn't sure if you were kidding around or not.
No offence intended if your problem is real.
Check the thread below and then come back here.

Hi again

See if you can install the games from the Command line

Open terminal[Menu-->Terminal]
and run this command This should download and install the games you referenced.

Good Luck
mick

hi again kntbrat

I'm glad it worked out for you.

Sorry about the pot joke, but the Twilight Zone nature of your
problem and the reference to "Humboldt Gardens" was too
much to pass up.

peace
mick

It is odd to me for a different reason. Installed Mint6/Felicia and now have Mint7/Gloria and have installed each of them on a desktop or two and never were the games present at install. On a couple of the machines I added them after the fact with Package Manager.

Perhaps the games are available when running the Live CD.

Good thought. I never used the live CDs long enough to check. I pretty much put in the CDs then install, even the first time.

They were on my live CD when I was running it off a USB stick... I never tried to run them but they were in the menu, I know that for a fact.

Looks like the case is solved

...or is it

If it makes you feel any better, they're gone now. I have made a lot of changes to the menu though, so that might be why. I wanted the games I installed to be on the menu, not the pre-installed ones.
