hello,

Does anyone know a free software game or program that can be used for a fun time of karaoke? I don't need it to be anything special, even if is not a game (without any points and so) but will play the instrumental and show the lyrics it would be cool.
Any help?? :)

For a trivia quiz see the package freevial

Freevial only includes questions that are supposedly in Catalan. I actually have a WIP set of English Freevial questions here:

I don't remember if Freevial has some kind of tool for editing questions (I don't think it does), but I just edited the XML files directly. If anyone wants to add more questions, I'll be happy to pull them.

Hello thank you both for your replies.
After taking a look, I think Performous is a good choice. Now I have only seen the songs that are available on the website. Is there any well known website where one can download some more "popular" songs to use with it? Or should regular "midi" files be OK to use with karaoke games like Performous?
Thanks for helping!

To answer my own questions:

http://usdb.animux.de/ has a lot of lyrics ready to be used in game. But you need to get the mp3/ogg file yourself. Either rip from a CD or buy the song online and use it. Sometimes you might get a different timing and it won't work, but most of the songs actually are working properly. Like most free software, it works very well, but you have to do a lot of "leg work" yourself. Also, the game doesn't seem to be updated for one or two years now, I wonder if they have given up on it. Also, Debian reps have version 0.6.1 still. I wonder if Trisquel has version 0.7 already??

Also, if anyone has ever tried it, do you get to hear your own voice when you sing? I can hear the songs playing, and the game gets my voice, even giving me the score, but the mic sound is not played over the speakers. wtf??
