works fine for me, couple of problems i've noticed, occasionally the "mouse" becomes unresponsive, only working correctly near the centre of the screen, and a more annoying one, if you minimise the game using ctrl+delete, a portion of the gamescreen remains in the upper right corner and i cant seem to remove it without a reboot.

Might want to go back and look at the package.
Try removing your /home/user/.pingus folder and try again.

1. Not sure how to get all the function keys listed at the bottom of the first screen! F11 for fullscreen! erm!

Not sure how easy these are to fix, but its an excellent port
1.I'm not sure what you mean by that, the function keys doesn't matter since n900 doesn't have them. I will probably still make a new version wich has fulscreen and resolution correctly set in the config file for easier command line running.

2.That one I will look into but I'm not a programmer so I can't promise anything.

Haven't ever had that problem so I really can't help you. Maybe it's some other program?

Sorry should have been clearer.
As there are no function keys there is no way of getting out of fullscreen.

Is there any advantage of running it from the command line? The shortcut seems to work fine for me. Well it looks ok anyway!

Are you sure you have libsdl-mixer1.2 installed (apt-get install libsdl-mixer1.2). Also check that you have '/home/user/.pingus/savegames/savegames.scm' file and that you run the game like i told to run it previously (currently the game would run in resolution bigger than the N900's screen).

No, there really is no advantage running it from command line if the game runs correctly for you. Currently the fullscreen option and resolution are configured in the menu entry file but in next version you will be able to change them neatly in a configure file.

EDIT: oh, and I'll try to release the new version today or tomorrow

Ok, as it seems like I can't get the game load the config file (I even tried it on my Ubuntu and this package is based on the Ubuntu version) I wont be releasing a new version. I will push the current version to Extras-Testing tomorrow if nobody can find the folder it loads the config from (in which case I will of course release a new version).

It was working for me fine until I shut the device down without closing pingus and now even after uninstalling and reinstalling several times, I'm now having the same trouble with the parser problem as other users.

Please run the game by typing the following and then post the outcome again:
/usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480

This tells the game where the games data is stored (since it doesn't find it by itself) and also it sets the correct resolution.
