I tried the symlink this way and it doesn't function:
1) $ sudo ln -s /usr/games /usr/bin/games
2) reboot
3) $ ls -l /usr/bin/ | grep games
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root   root          11 2011-05-11 01:18 games -> /usr/games/
(so here it is)
4) $ supertuxkart
Command 'supertuxkart' is available in '/usr/games/supertuxkart'
The command could not be located because '/usr/games' is not included in the
PATH environment variable.
supertuxkart: command not found

So this way doesn't function :) Is there another way to create symlinks that
I can try?
