HELP!

Why can't anything be simple and easy and without trouble

Here, I find out I can do a one-click install on some of the programs that interest me on Maemo, but noooo, with just the first click, I have trouble.

battlegweled: I go to download, I get a msg

UNABLE TO INSTALL. SOME PACKAGES REQUIRED FOR THE INSTALLTION ARE MISSING.

The details show:

Packages missing libsdl-net1.2


I figured I'd try another (why stop at one screw-up I say!)

Tried putting another game, wouldn't load, finally figured out it was for the 2007OS

So, I look in the application manager file. It shows a bunch of games I never loaded on the unit, other than Battle Gweled, and I wonder how they got there. They are:

crazyparking
icebreaker
lxdoom
maemoblocks
maemodrac
maemosweeper
tuxpuck

a little more digging, I see other downloads in there -

Mediastreamer
theme-blue
theme-grey
theme-lila
theme-red


Were these pre-installed and there when I got the unit? Should I not want one of these, like maemosweeper, how does one delete it? Couldn't figure that one out

And, how do I fix the problem with Battle Gweled, and why, on a one-click install did it come with an error?

Thanks for any help!!!!
