Hmm, the problem seems to be in your savegame... Have you done anything to with your installation? Also could you paste the first few lines of your '/home/user/.pingus/savegames/savegames.scm'?

If you can tell me how, I will. I haven't done anything with the installation apart from shut the phone down while pingus was running.

it worked using /usr/games/pingus --datadir /usr/share/games/pingus/data/ --fullscreen -g 800x480
but why it doesn't work by the menu icon ? and does it require OCing cause its a bit laggy..or maybe the sound is im not sure

Thats quite weird since the menu icon runs exactly the same command. I'm just trying stuff blindly but could you try using this .desktop file and see if it works (just unpack it and replace the orginal in /usr/share/applications/hildon/)? And it might be a bit laggy sometimes bu it still works wery well without OC'ing even with sound.

Just use filebox, I tink it's the easiest way

That problem is really weird since for some people it just works (like me) and then for some people it doesn't... I really would like to know does the game incorrectly make the savegame for some people (since it complains that the savegame doesn't start with a "(") or maybe it just cant find it (like it can't find the data directory without specifying it's location to it). I'll look what I can do to this tomorrow.

Re: [Maemo5]Pingus - a Lemmings clone (now in Extras-Devel!)
 
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.

It didn't lag at all when it ran from the icon but it is doing having to run it from xterm. I wonder if it's because xterm is still open?
