Remapping the keyboard and ScummVM

I found a way to bypass the menu problem with ScummVM. The menu is originally bind to the F5 key - which does not exists on the zaurus. But I can map Fn-5 to simulate F5, just edit /etc/keymap-2.6.map, and add under,

keycode 6 = five
The following line,
altgr keycode 6 = F5
Now when I run ScummVM and press Fn-5 the menu pops up - hurrah.
So now I can update the old 0.6.1 version to the new 0.9.0 version,
removed the old version,
# ipkg-link remove scummvm-qpe
# ipkg remove scummvm-qpe
and installed the new one,
# ipkg install -d loop0 scummvm
# ipkg-link add libflac4; ipkg-link add libvorbis ; ipkg-link add scummvm
The new version supports skins, so I'll install the modern-dark theme from www.tyrannozaurus.com ScummVM section. After installing a theme the theme.ini and theme.zip filenames should be changed to modern.ini and modern.zip (in /usr/share/scummvm/themes/).
It is also suggested in tyrannozaurus to use the AdvMAME 2x filter.
