   Hello. I have installed Tuxtype and Klavaro in my 4.0 system. Both programs are visible in the menus but they do not start when I click them. Does anybody know of any bugs in these two programs? If not, could anybody guide me to find out what might be wrong and correct the problem? Thank you.

   This is how to troubleshoot a program that doesn't start with the shortcut.
   Open terminal.
   Grep the shortcut to determine the executable command.
   type:
   grep -i Exec= /usr/share/applications/tuxtype.desktop
   hit Enter
   Exec=tuxtype
   type:
   tuxtype
   hit Enter
   Error - CONF_PREFIX = '/etc/tuxtype' not found!
   Error - SetupPaths() failed, exiting program.
   Make missing config directory:
   # mkdir /etc/tuxtype
   type:
   tuxtype
   hit Enter
   tuxtype runs but sound is broken on my computer with errors:
   Error - User Settings Path = '/root/.tuxtype' not found, I will attempt to create it.
   load_settings_filename(): no theme-specific settings found: /root/.tuxtype/settings.txt
   Mix_Init: Failed to init required ogg and mod support!
   Mix_Init: Mixer not built with MP3 support
   LoadSound() - could not load harp.wav
   LoadSound() - could not load tock.wav
   LoadSound() - could not load pop.wav
   Could not load menu sounds - turning menu_sound off

   Klavaro started without any issues on my computer:
   tux@slitaz:~$ grep -i Exec= /usr/share/applications/klavaro.desktop
   Exec=klavaro
   tux@slitaz:~$ klavaro
   ** Message: creating an empty user folder:
   /home/tux/.config/klavaro

   Adiaux!

   Mojo, thank you very much for your detailed process to solve the starting issue. I did create the subdirectory for tuxtype and then started without problems. With Klavaro, I de-installed the version I had, removed the 2 versions I had in the tazpck subdirectory, and then re install the version from the tazpck repository with tazpanel. Solved! It works. Now, it does not appear in the "Education" list, but in the Utility. I really appreciate your help.
