But what it means is got to xterm (press ctrl+shift+x for example) and type for example the command: apt-get install offscr-solitaire
It fetches the package from an online repository and installs the application. Instructions for adding the required OVI repository are earlier in this thread.
Do not do this unless you understand what you are doing, so please Google and research this beforehand!

i've installed both cube and solitaire. Are these optified?
As ever, once it's official, I'll uninstall and re-install the official one, makes it easier for updates.

Sorry to tote this old horn, but N900 is not Nokia's flagship, it is a tech-head Internet tablet with phone. Maemo is a work in progress and with regards to the OVI Suite too.
Expect lots more incomplete things. It should not be a surprise.

Well, I'm seeing their files in /opt/offscr*... However, when you use apt-get, be sure to check your /var/cache/apt/archives for any leftovers...
