Newest (January 2012) Gcompris is now on extras-devel.
GCompris is a high quality educational software suite comprising of numerous activities for children aged 2 to 10. Some of the activities are game orientated, but nonetheless still educational.

At least fresh installing works, let me know if there are problems with upgrading existing one.

Game play video: http://youtu.be/jxCzgEGO4f8

This version contains 124 activities (nothing dropped yet), some of them are not working on N900:

*Throwing ball: keyboard doesn't have two shifts

*Watering can and sweeping game: On touchscreen, moving mouse pointer is always dragging (i.e. mouse button is also down)
-> Game should accept dragging as moving

*Double clicking (at least in two games) is hard, and generally not used on touchscreen devices.

Let me know if there are more non-functional games (and what to do for them to keep them playable and fun)

If you get game crashing, start from terminal and try to reproduce it, then post logs:
