And here it is. If you want to play PrBoom with rudimentary accelerometer control right now, i made a script to simplify things a bit. Install the accelemymote package and download the attached script. Untar it and run it and you'll get fullscreen prboom with accelerometer control...

More detailed instructions:

Download it to N900, open an xterm and type
tar -xzf MyDocs/prboom-joy
then press Tab to complete and enter.

To run it type:
./joyboom.sh

Remember you have to use the backspace key to navigate the menu to quit in fullscreen mode.

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?
