Well, I'd love to have the music too as the Doom music simply rocks.
What's broken? I haven't even tried the Duke Nukem 3D port in devel but it seems to be at least trying to play the music with timidity judging from the timidity package that is part of it. :P
One reason i didn't pursue it before is that the recommended timidity patches are larger than the game and wad put together, so it seemed a rather excessive.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?

The app is great!
I've only had a couple of issues with it thus far:
On the setup screen where wads initialized can be specified, I can't type in numbers, only letters. (this is an issue, as a couple of the wad files contain numbers, although I suppose I could just rename them)
The other is that for some reason the original (commercial) doom.wad (first game) doesn't seem to run very well. I get tons of artifacting. Is there an easy fix for this?

Edit: Is it the final release version of the wad?

That's very strange considering the shareware doom.wad works fine. The freedoom doom2.wad does, too. Have you played using the shareware wad and had no trouble? The only thing i can think of to suggest is that you leave only that wad and prboom.wad in the wad directory in case it's doing some weird double-loading.
Edit: Is it the final release version of the wad?
I removed all other wads from the folder except prboom.wad and doom.wad, and it worked!! Not sure why it would have been double loading, but it fixed the issue.

The keyboard layout is changed with a call to gconf-2. Can you change locales with setxkbmap? The present method is a nasty hack to get around Nokia's nasty design decision and nobody has suggested "the right way" to deal with it, in spite of my bug report on the matter. I'm open to ideas for improvement and would also welcome popular support @ the bug report to encourage the devs to prepare a direct solution for this ongoing problem.

Does prboom have support for mp3 music? I know that some doom engines have.
I've found some kind of mp3s from these sites:

Yes, all the Dooms before Doom 3 are supported by PrBoom. Doom, Doom II, Ultimate Doom, etc. It's all a matter of the wad file.

has anyone tried this setting for movement in doom?
Q W E
A S D
Q-LEFT, W-UP, E-RIGHT
A-LEFT, S-DOWN, D-RIGHT
I just wanna know what someone thinks about this settings beside myself...I'm getting the n900 soon, but since it lacks a D-pad I might abandon buying the phone all together. Just wanna know how this settings feel whilst playing doom to determine how fluid gameplay would be on this phone. Partly because i saw some one on youtube playing prdoom and had to pause or stop at times to shoot enemies leading him to have a very quick death. Simply put i want a good gaming experience on this device and not a 'gamelike' experience...lol
