hmm, i'm getting "Opening file failed" all the time, tried different versions of the data folder, i put the entire windows installation directory into /home/user/MyDocs/games/ja2 and set /home/user/.ja2/ja2.ini's data_dir to that directory using vi.

Any ideas? I'm "Elvaron" in freenode's #maemo irc channel, help would be GREATY appreciated, I love this game, wish i knew where my original disc(s) is/are.

EDIT: Fixed... Now to find out how to use ALT button

EDIT 2:
some further Keymaps that would make the game 100% playable:

Proximity Sensor + keyboard (similar to Prox.Sensor + Mouseclick = RMB) => ALT + key (as in ALT+S for quicksave)

blue FN key (if thats possible, otherwise Proximity Sensor+Ctrl) + key => Symbols, some are needed for the more advanced commands, e.g.:
/ Forward slash: Center on currently selected merc.
= Equals Key : Selects all mercs in the current sector, regardless of squad.
1 thru 0 : Tactical Screen: Change to that squad number, if they are in the same sector. Map Screen : Select all members of that squad number.
SHIFT 1 thru 0 : Map Screen: Select all members of squads 11 thru 20.
, Comma : Toggles between Team and Inventory panels.
*STAR : Toggles between red and white glowing objects.
+ : Increase funds by $ 10,000 (Cheat)
- : Decrease funds by $ 10,000 (Cheat)

it would be great if key commands could be stacked, such as ALT, then F => Alt+F (instead of having to hold alt until f is pressed), making things such as ALT+Shift+Ctrl+* or something possible (not that this particular combo were in the game, still...)

Alternatively, a software keyboard to be activated by some key combo, with keys, numbers, symbols, INS/END/DEL/PG UP/PG DN/HOME and on/off switches for CTRL, SHIFT and ALT would make weird key combos obsolete.
