Freecell issue - when I click on a card nothing happens. I can double click and it goes to the empty four boxes above, but I cannot shift one card to another stack.

[Eric Canon]

Binary package hint: gnome-games

I am using Ubuntu 9.04. It's a new installation on a new machine. The game is Freecell Solitaire 2.26.1 Copyright © 1998-2006 Jonathan Blandford Copyright © 2007, 2008, 2009 Christian Persch. The problem is that if I click a card nothing happens. If I double click a card it will fly to the top row of four spaces. I cannot move a card from one row to another.

It is a new installation and I needed to select click to move in the control menu. All's well.

The issue was not a bug and was resolved when I selected click to move from
the control menu. It might be helpful that click to move was a default
setting. For me it was not and it took me a while to discover the option.
