Doom is a first person shooter game with content that is probably not suitable for young children, but is great fun for older ones.
Freedoom is a free software clone of Doom, based on improvements made to Doom's 3d engine with new maps and monsters.
How to install Doom bundle
This file has been compromised by a cracker. It should be removed, but I don't see the original version.
Click Doom-1.xo to download Doom. Then install as usual.
This is tested working in shipping builds, not tested with rainbow security enabled, yet.
Video of Doom played on the OLPC

Changing Doom to run in full screen mode
To run in full screen mode, type:
prboom -geom 1200x900
To permanently adjust Freedoom to run in full screen mode all the time, type:
cd /home/olpc/.prboom nano prboom.cfg
This will open the freedoom configuration file in the nano text editor. Find the two lines in the file with the words:
width 640 height 480
And change them to:
width 1200 height 900
Then type ctrl-x to exit, and type y to save your changes. Now, Freedoom should run in full screen mode when you type
prboom
Edit:Starts in Full Screen after saving changes with just prboom.
Help
I installed this by downloading the .xo file and then I tried changing the graphics mode to OpenGL and now it won't start. I tried removing it and re-installing it, but it still won't start. I think my (poor choice of) settings were not reset when I did that.
Game settings (all activity settings actually) are found in your .sugar/ directory. Just remove the .sugar/default/org.laptop.doom directory to clear saved settings after you remove the activity, and then re-install.
Hint, don't try the OpenGL video mode.
