Got the same problem, can't get out of fullscreen mode without exiting the application. The shortcut key for that function on the desktop is F11, I am unsure how to do this on the mobile.

Thanks a lot.

For Beginners (like me):
Download packages, open X terminal (or SSH) and go to directory with downloaded packages (in this case /media/mmc1/install - directory install on storage card). Then install packages.

Packages:
http://gudmundson.se/anders_gud/index.php?s=file_download&id=39
http://gudmundson.se/anders_gud/inde...download&id=40
http://gudmundson.se/anders_gud/inde...download&id=42

Example:

Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install libart-2.0-2 libpcre3

cd /media/mmc1/install

dpkg -i libgoffice-0-6-common_0.6.3-2_all.deb
dpkg -i libgoffice-0-6_0.6.3-2_armel.deb
dpkg -i gnumeric_1.8.3-5maemo1_armel.deb
Tips:
If you haven't root access yet (sudo gainroot throws "enable RD mode if you want break your device"), You have to install rootsh package from Package Manager.

If you don't know where you downloaded packages, you can find it by commands or install Midnight Commander (Like Norton Commander) and then run it.

Solution 1: Use filesystem commands
cd - change directory
ls - list of files and directories
pwd - describes actual directory
find - search files or directories
Code:
find / -name gnumeric_1.8.3-5maemo1_armel.deb
Solution 2: Installation of Midnight Commander
Code:
sudo gainroot
apt-get install mc
mc

Two of the tree files hosted on gudmundson.se are the exact same file (gnumeric_1.8.3-5maemo1_armel.deb). Could someone post a link to the third file?

Thanks for this, imo the lack of a spreadsheet was one of the most annoying thing about this phone.
The only thing that makes this a little disappointing is that when you press enter you would expect to be able to edit that box without touching the formula box.
Unless I have got some settings wrong, it would be great if anyone has any idea how to fix this.

Gnumeric and also OpenOffice Calc already existed on the N900 thanks to Easy Debian, see http://wiki.maemo.org/Easy_Debian and this thread: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=34550.

If anyone here is interested in trying out that alternative, here some quick instructions:
While OpenOffice is already preinstalled in the Debian image provided by Easy Debian, gnumeric needs still to be installed, which is however very easy (nomen est omen). In the "Debian chroot" terminal just enter
Code:
apt-get update
apt-get install gnumeric
Gnumerics can then be started from XTerminal by "debbie gnumeric", and if the "Set Deb HW Keys" app has been run, the function keys F1-F12 are available as Shift-Fn-(Upper Row). Full screen can also be toggled by Ctrl+Space.

I'd be curious to hear about how the Debian version compares with the Maemo one.

Every time I try installing libpcre3 (using apt-get) I get this:

Code:
Packagelibpcre3 is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
E: Package libpcre3 has no installation candidate
How else should I be trying to get this package?

Edit: Never mind, I just needed to add the fremantle/tools repository

Can you add mime support to this app?
It will be nice for opening attached files from emails
