Freecell animation disable?

[Albert Fujimori <abab867 gmail com>]

I hate to admit it, but I play Freecell quite a lot. My problem is that the version in RHEL/etc/6 (2.28.2) is no longer suitable for playing timed games.

The main problem is that the board clear at the end of the game is animated, and it takes 2 or 3 seconds to clear the board, while the clock is still running. A second problem is that all the other card movements are animated as well, which increases the time required to move a card. I can turn this off with 'single-click' movements, but I'm not keen on that.

Are there any configuration changes that I can make to "fix" this? The version on Centos 4.4 (sorry, don't know what version that was) worked very well. Or do I have to mod the sources?

Thanks -
