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.

When I first installed it it ran from the icon until I shut the phone down with pingus still running. Since then, whith much farting around, I can only run it from xterm

A work-around to make it start from desktop icon could be to edit:
/usr/share/applications/hildon/pingus.desktop
Change this line:
to
Works for me 
/usr/share/applications/hildon/pingus.desktop
Change this line:
Code:
Exec=/usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480
Code:
Exec=/usr/bin/osso-xterm -e '/usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480'

I would update to 0.7.3 release. Mainly because vanilla (no patches) 0.7.2 has a huge memory leak when playing multiple levels. It was at least fixed in svn version which I used for OS2008 package, but I have to admit that I haven't tested 0.7.3 or this maemo5 package.
