i tried to install xgalaga on my old 770 a while back but couldn't get it to work because of the missing package. Now Iam trying to get it installed on my 800 but iam faced with the same package problem. does anyone know how to find it? i have googled for an hour and can't find it.

thought i saw that libxmp4 lives in (through my googles):

http://repository.maemo.org chinook free non-free

so add the repo, then check for the lib?

(note: i have not installed xgal - yet!)

:-)

p.s. allusive != elusive

allusive != elusive hahaha i knew it. i actually asked others in the room when i was posting yesterday. 3 people stand corrected.

Thanks for the link, exploing it now...

do you suggest downloading maemo 4.0 'chinook'? it appears to be more of a developer tool.

chinook == release
bora == release

chinook > bora (IIRC?)

I appreciate the assistance (and Iam still pretty new with linux), but can anyone shed any more light on this? I am not really following.
