Thank you for the GUI, I´m happy with XGngeo, but will try this out to check if there´re more functions, already saw ´mute` option wich is already available by X Term, but with a GUI is much easier, thanks. Hopefully somebody will make this app (gngeo) even better with future updates.
I gotta a bug with keys configuration. The ´up` key is also COIN, don`t know why and ´forward` is also START , fulscreen works fine with as long as we don` try to change volumen or any other kind of screen transition ( like battery full, battery low etc ) warnings as the app gets segmentation fault .
I am due to upload a video to youtube soon. Check the GNgeo Tutorial thread in 1 or 2 days.

To answer your question: Xgngeo has more (configuration) options. For the moment, I left out the sound sample rate for example, because my config screen was full .
But Xgngeo also shows options which cannot be changed/set (blitter for example).
Personally, I find it most important to be able to start a game quick and easy, rather than have to go through menus with all kinds of obscure options I will likely never change.
I assume your remark about the key configuration has to do with gngeo itself? I never experienced that issue (using the gamegripper key config)...

So I decided to try to make a front-end my own. I ended up using Python with Pyside bindings as a programming language. Without any python/Qt programming experience, the code is not something I am proud of, but the resulting program is quite usable in my opinion.
gngeo
gngeo-gui depends on gngeo, the emulator itself. I modified some of the source of version 0.7 to make functions like reset, loadstate etc. configurable on the N900 (else they are not usable). It does not include the bios for copyright reasons.
videos
gleydsonpr has put several video's on his youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=gprkof
Using gngeo-gui
The first time it will probable complain it cannot find all paths and will redirect you to the config section. You should be able to set all paths correctly using gngeo-gui, but you can of course edit the (gngeorc) config file by hand.
Ones the directory containing your game-roms is set correctly (and gngeo-gui is restarted), you can choose your game by tapping on the blue square in the middle.
Install
You can find it in the Fremantle Extras-devel repository.
In the Maemo garage, you can also find the installable deb package:
