Welcome to Pingus 0.7.2!

~ $
I also installed libsdl-mixer1.2 i
It's a shame cos I was really enjoying it

If you can tell me how, I will. I haven't done anything with the installation apart from shut the phone down while pingus was running.

it worked using /usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480
but why it doesn't work by the menu icon ? and does it require OCing cause its a bit laggy..or maybe the sound is im not sure

That problem is really weird since for some people it just works (like me) and then for some people it doesn't... I really would like to know does the game incorrectly make the savegame for some people (since it complains that the savegame doesn't start with a "(") or maybe it just cant find it (like it can't find the data directory without specifying it's location to it). I'll look what I can do to this tomorrow.

Right. This is how I got it working. I uninstalled pingus and deleted the savegames.scm file using filebox. reinstalled pingus. Still didn't work. So I uninstalled pingus again and deleted the whole .pingus folder and reinstalled pingus again and noiticed that the savegames.scm was missing. tried via the icon with no luck but it started in xterm using /usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480. It must of created the savegames.scm on start up.
Like I said, It worked fine when I first installed it up until I closed the phone down with pingus running.
