I was looking around in my /usr/src directory and was suprised to find
a games directory with all my beloved games from System V (ie Rogue).
I tried a make command in the appropriate directories to no avail.  No
errors, but no executables either.  I just want rogue and fortune, any
suggestions?

On a totally unrelated note:  What would happen if I were to place
parity simms in a motherboard that does not support parity?  Would it
cause damage, not work, or just ignore the parity bits and run as if
they were non-parity?

Thanks,
Trey
