For what it's worth, if you run it from console you'll probably see error
messages in the console rather than any dialog warnings... Though it
probably won't come out and just say it, most likely your GARNOME install
of Aisleriot is not finding "slot.svg"

It's really hard to say where the problem is, but generally speaking,
everybody getting their gnome-games from something other than a
CVS-oriented build system such as the FC4-test series or Ubuntu have not
reported this problem. Best to send your problem to bugzilla, though it
may not be a gnome-games problem at all.

Truth is, we should have more warning dialogs whenever required images are
not loaded, enough so that bug reports won't have to ask users to run in
console and tell us what they see. It is really just a change in culture,
as I've seen GNOME bugs like this back 5 years ago that were simply closed
and users told "Your install is broken. Try reinstalling from source or
your RPM", and this was indeed correct, just not user friendly and robust.
There's a few bugs already open about this in bugzilla, and it's a bit of
a priority for this cycle.
