I have upload a screenshot of the solved Numpty Physics level:

spoiler

1.: let the red circle roll to the compensator and 2. catapult it into the snail shell. if the object is on position 3. you should stop the time an paint the second compensator. After this the red circle should hit the yellow object and the level is solved.
But its the last of the standard levels are installed…

Murphy: yes, those are cool and I have a few installed. And while I know I can just read their source code, I’d much prefer to be able to find the official documentation for how they work

I just buy a N810 and found some apps you will love : http://nitapps.com/

The back button (the one next to the application switcher, in case I have the wrong name) removes the last stroke.

On the topic of documentation, I’m still not quite sure what the scope of maemo is. I think I’d appreciate documentation for using all the hardware bits on my n810. e.g. reading the light-meter, the gps, the camera, keyboard in/out sensor, battery, wireless etc.

I’m not sure if this is stuff that is “maemo” or not. If it isn’t relevant, then pointers to the relevant projects would be great. If it is relevant, then I think it would be a cool place to start.

The last stroke is deleted by Escape — the lower button on the left edge of the tablet.
I am stuck at the same level, BTW.

Just press the escape button to delete the last stroke. Works on my N810.

You can delete the last stroke with the back button (the bottom button below the LED).

I beat the snail shell level, it was rough. I’m trying to remember how I actually did it in the end. I know I tried a sort of a see-saw contraption and dropping something on the other side to launch it into the shell.
