I tried nethack (which seems really fun btw), and it's the same problem. No directional movement on the hardware d pad or the xkbd directional keys.

I'm trying to use xarchiver to place pushwall's directory files, but it won't let me extract into the main file library, claiming that I don't have the right permissions.

I believe I've gained root access via xterminal by downloading rootsh and typing "gain root" in xterm. I should be able to extract to these directories, right?
