I've been interested in game programming and design for a long time but don't know how to start learning or the tools to use for that. Any ideas?

hey, did you download the iso file for the openSuse 10.1? if you did, all you need to do is burn the ISO files to cds and then run the cds normally when your computer starts up. I would advice you to use the 10.2 release.

If a country does not cater for the interest of her players then what motivation would the players have for that country? All we do is blame the coach for the poor performance of the team. The NFA always has a part in everything that goes bad, so lets skip that. You cannot compare Eguavon and Vogt. The performance of the team lies on the shoulders of the players not only the coach. The coach can give instructions but if the players don't carry them out, then everything is wasted.

Concerning the "injured" players (and I will still give Obi as an example); according to Vogt, he did not believe his excuse of being injured. If the lad really wanted to stick to his claim of injury, why did he lose contact with the team? Any reason for that? Martins at first was not reachable but he made sure he joined the team in camp. What does it take to make a phone call and confirm whatever is wrong with him. Forget sentiments. It's still a priviledge to play for your country and if you take it for granted, you'll be replaced. We have too many gifted people in this country that can replace anyone in that national team. Whatever problem he had with the NFA is between them. A good coach does well with disciplined players.

He has every reason to be working for the National team, we just have a bunch of low thinkers, that's all. The only way a coach, esp. one of his caliber, can work is if there's cooperation. And that's what we lack in the national team and the NFA. If I were in his position, I'll do the same. I wonder why we Nigerians think backwards most of the time.

How can you imply that he resigned because of the game he lost to Uganda. The players themselves were being stupid. How can you call a player up to camp and then he will decide not to be reachable by phone or anything. Who do they think they are anyway. They refuse to understand that it is a privilege to play for your country. How many people have that dream.

If the story of his resign is true, then that means he was frustrated by the behavior of the players. Someone like Obi must have been really stupid not to come. If he thinks he's so much of a prodigy, the next kid that is half as good as him will replace him for good.

Please don't act like a typical Nigerian blaming the coach. Only typical Nigerians like those FA morons do that. A manager with the caliber of Vogt should be respected for his achievements. How many Nigerian players can boast of attaining any of the glory that the players Vogt coached have attained? Tell me! When our players get a head, Nigeria will become the Eagles they once were. For now, they are no better than Saudi Arabia!!!!
