No sound (maybe not included in the demo?) and I can't get the menu to appear in-game & I'm too tired to figure it out right now. I'll have a crack at this tomorrow - sorry for the incomplete report.
Try playing some of the free full games. Flight of the Amazon Queen or Beneath a Steel Sky.

The menu button on the N800/N810 is what brings up the in-game menu.

I am looking at pictures of the N900 and I cannot figure out where that is. Maybe it doesn't have a menu button.
Here's what I can see from the screenshots:
  • The power button
  • The lock spring-button
  • Zoom +/- buttons
  • A camera button (!?)
This means you're missing some of the keys compared to an N810 and I will have to make a special keymapping.
What does the camera button do right now?

Another option is to bring up the virtual keyboard (Ctrl Zoom+) and type in CTRL-F5 and submit it. Let me know if that works.

N900 got full qwerty keyboard, so savegame-name input shouldn't be a problem. Not sure if right mouse button is required in any of lucasarts adventures (full throttle maybe???) still is handy with the default action mapped.

Castle of Dr. Brain completable on Expert difficulty.

Small, graphical glitch with the work clock you punch the time cards in.

One fatal crash in the word search puzzle.

Jigsaw puzzle was a little tough with moving the pieces around.

Overall though, it played perfectly.

Thanks again Tarek.

Please attach a save so I can reproduce.

Please attach a save so I can understand what you mean.

Thanks for playtesting.

^ I only have one save and it's for the final end of the game.

Sorry about being such a poopy playtester.

I'm now playing The Colonel's Bequest since last night.

Any weirdness and I'll keep my save files around for you this time.

Two mentions.

Laura Bow: The Colonel's Bequest (DOS/English) and Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter (SCI/DOS/English), both these games, while it's possible to move your character with the hardware D-Pad, their movement is very weird.

Instead of walking smoothly, they jitter in the direction like the D-Pad was on rapid fire if you're holding the key down.

Also, the virtual keyboard repeats keys pressed way too blazing fast.

Thanks for still sticking around on this.

Cheers Tarek.

Launches the camera app (as does Ctrl-Camera)

'fraid not. Just adjusts the system volume. Also tried Ctrl-Power, as well as Fn instead of Ctrl for all the above.

Not sure how to proceed. Thanks again for the time and effort you're investing in this

That's the default handling, but applications can override it and get control of those keys back if they want - see http://wiki.maemo.org/Documentation/...me.2Fzoom_keys

This probably isn't even worth a post for anyone to read. *lol*

But hey, anyone still here with an old N800 and would like to play Laura Bow: The Colonel's Bequest, I made a keyboard just for this game.

It's simple to use, and when you press the Enter key, it sends a Return signal plus the keyboard immediately goes off of the screen.

It's a really nice setup on this.





Since no one seems to use Xkbd anymore, I don't expect so much as a dim flicker of a response from anyone. *lol*

Anyway, many cheers and blessings to you all.

Hi Tarek.

You probably don't know the answer to this but thought to ask anyway.

Using Xkbd, for some reason the Ctrl key doesn't work with SCUMM.

I've tried both Control_L and Control_R.

It's send out the correct signal but SCUMM doesn't seem to accept it.

The Ctrl key that comes with your virtual keyboard works just fine so I have no clue what the issue might be on this.

Thanks for reading.
