guys

the instructions and video tutorials are just brilliant... however IMO there is a couple of things not being taken into account, while for some of us we can figure out what your instruction did, for others this is not always the case.

- can someone please post a complete generic list of dependencies needed by any of these type of SDL games, or at least a list of the ones you have identified so far, this would hopefully help fix any errors other people maybe experiencing/seeing
e.g. to fix the following error: PDL: Failed to initialize libosso
what dependencies would be missing?
e.g. end user would just update dependency as follow:
apt-get install xxxxxxxxxxx
where xxxxxxxxxx is the dependency name
I think such a list should also be added to the wiki: http://wiki.maemo.org/Preenv


- please make it more clear when giving intructions if some folders are being created because they may be hard coded into the game(e.g. default location needed/used by game when trying to save something to particular file.e.g. settings) or because in your example the specific folder may have been the location of where your particular game resides(maybe specify at the beginning of tutorial that you assume the game will be locate /path/to/game/folder/ then your instructions will be more clear for those who may have the game in a diferent location.

thank you
