If you fail to follow most basic directions, then you shouldn't ask ANY questions here, because it seems to be predestinated to be pure spam.
If you are so sad you couldn't install the game on dosbox, and play it on N900, then I have great news for you:
On non-OC-ed N900, under dosbox even Titus the Fox lags like hell (even with all sophisticated bufferrin, caching etc.).. and it's a game for a 386 processor (a lesson of counting - 8080, 8086, 80186, 80286, 386, 486, pentium 1 - it doesn't know what is 486+100.0 :P, pentium 2, pentium 3 and further you probably know). So for your info - you can even install windows 95 on dosbox on OC-ed N900 but it would have low sense unless you want to play hearts, and don't mind lags. (there exist minesweeper for arm-wine so no minesweeper advice).

If any game have to be smooth on N900 and it's requirements are higher than CGA graphic card, It needs to be totally rewritten for linux and ARM processor, unless it's already open source. if it's OSS then it still have a lot of work to make it work on ARM processor and as low resolution as 800x480. So go for courses on linux for aunties, and when you pass there may already the game ported, or at least the new phone which handle the game through an emulator. If you have more problems on passing the course than I suspect then you may be able to buy phone on technology higher than silicon transistors. We will have much more peace here as you seem to fail first semester at least once. So go studying and go back if your abilities is significally better than my grandma (and she seems to be still able to learn, so you need learn faster than she :P).

meanwhile thanks all guys (and ladies) for all the work done, It's really heroic! If there are "free" (in terms on time) devs, please go on vcmi.eu (it's open source project to recreate HoMM3 engine) and please work on interface features which would allow it to work on N900 (it's already free of problems with endianess, but it seems to need at least 800x600 to run with current interface, and there's not enough devs willing to implement low-res interface now).

For her majesty Catherine Gryphonheart!

EDIT: why it censored the cat female?
for vcmi someone should port the android version as it is scaled trough some SDL GLES stuf or something like that to fit 800x480...
