	After thinking about it, I realized that Mandriva was really trying to play all audio out of my USB headset. I unplugged my USB headset, and rebooted into Mandriva 2010 Live, and music for Legend of Tux and everything else worked great. You would think that there would be an option in Sound Configuration (in Mandriva Linux Control Center) to select which device you want to use for audio output, but I checked and there isn't an option that I could find.

			I was looking at the Hardware tool, and you MAY be able to switch the output device by expanding the "Soundcard" item, but I haven't tested this.

			== openSUSE 11.1 ==

			Same steps as Ubuntu.

			Home directory is /home/linux.

			Firefox appears to save the lotux_v0_4.tar.gz to the Desktop here also:

			cd /home/linux/Desktop
			mv lotux_v0_4.tar.gz ..
			cd ..
			gzip -d lotux_v0_4.tar.gz
			tar -xvf lotux_v0_4.tar
			cd release_ubuntu
			./lotux

			You will probably get the libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0 error

			Download and run the SDL_mixer RPM

			[[File:Suse install 01.png\|200px]]

			http://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_mixer/release/SDL_mixer-1.2.11-1.i586.rpm

			Open with "Install Software (default)"

			Got an error about missing rpmlib when installing the RPM. May have to find and install that dependency.
