First of all, are you talking about tetris or tetrix?  If it is tetris that you
are talking about, you need to read the documentation more clearly.  It says
that the package he uses for curses is BSD specific.  This means it no compile
on SunOS.

If this is not the problem, perhaps providing more details would be helpful. 
Do you get any type of error/other message when you compile it?  Does it print
anything on the screen before it coredumps?  Etc...
