I think the .desktop file that I posted works for me because I'm not using the kof files from the first post (the ones hosted on a mediafire page). I downloaded the kofv5.pnd file from the pandora forums, ran an unsquishfs on it. Then I moved the contents to an /opt/kof folder on my N900. After that I had to edit the kofv5.sh file to fully qualify the paths of the lib and bin files used in it. Then chmod 755 on the libs and 777 on the .sh file in /opt/kof. This is what I did on my N900 and the resulting files run just fine from the kof.desktop file that I uploaded. On my system, you can run /opt/kof/kofv5.sh from anywhere in the terminal, and the game will run just fine, just like it does from my kof.desktop file. If anyone else would like this "simplified" version of the kof files, let me know and I'll zip up my /opt/kof folder and upload it somewhere.
