Also, has anyone tried this on a PPC with a slide out keyboard, and if it would solve any of the keymapping issues or just cause more?

I just slapped a WM6.0 ROM with a 0 MB page pool setting onto my X50v just to see if performance would be acceptable, and I haven't had any filesys.exe issues yet.
Of course, I also tested the UQM port, and lo and behold, it works this time! However, the D-Pad is mapped incorrectly, still having its portrait mode orientation while the display is in landscape. If I try going into landscape beforehand, then the image doesn't display properly. It would be nice if that were fixed.
Oh, and as far as the HTC Mogul problems are concerned, did you try making a shortcut to UQM.exe with command line arguments to set the resolution to 320x240? (I'm not sure how else to help until I manage to let one of my classmates test UQM on her Mogul.)

I made the shortcut as I know how to. I used Resco Explorer to copy/paste shortcut. I opened the file in Word Mobile, and here is what is displayed currently for the file uqm_shortcut:
27#"\Storage Card\UQM\uqm.exe"
21#"\Storage Card\UQM\uqm.exe' -1 uqm_log.txt
"- 320x240"
Am I doing something wrong? Missing something?

Try editing it to display the following:
"\Storage Card\UQM\uqm.exe" -1 uqm_log.txt -r 320x240
If that doesn't work, try adding the 21# at the beginning and see what happens.

It is not "-1", but rather "-l" as in "log" I am fairly certain that it works on HTC Mogul, b/c I did try it out on a friend's HTC 6700 (WM5), as well as my HTC Touch (WM6). -Pavel
Ok, I changed it so it now reads in the uqm_shortcut.lnk:
27#"\Storage Card\UQM\uqm.exe"
21#"\Storage Card\UQM\uqm.exe' -l uqm_log.txt
"-r 320x240"
When I tap the shortcut, I get the 'working' icon, then nothing. Still no log is being created.

I still don't understand why you have two lines (one starting with 27 and one starting with 21).
I suggest trying the folowing:
1. Remove your shortcut
2. Create a new shortcut by clicking on the file, then Copy, and then Paste As Shortcut
3. Edit the shortcut and add the following at the end:
-r320x240 -luqmlog.txt
NOTE: Make sure you do this correctly, i.e. if your original line is this:
29#"\Storage Card\UQM\UQM.EXE"
your new line will be:
29#"\Storage Card\UQM\UQM.EXE" -r320x240 -luqmlog.txt
Again, after the original line you will have a SPACE character, then -r320x240 (NO SPACES between r and 3), then -luqmlog.txt (NO SPACES between l and u)
I think you have two problems in your current shortcut:
1. Two lines. There should be only one line.
2. You have "-r 320x240" in quotes. This will probably pass it in to executable as single argument, and the executable doesn't know what to do with it (that's just my guess, I haven't checked the code)
NOTE: that you should only end up with ONE line in the shortcut file.
The log file is written in the current directory (normally wince doesn't have a concept of current dir, but cegcc introduces it).
I never had to change the initial number in the shortcut - it works for me w/o changing it in both WM5 and WM6.
Bottomline: First check to make sure you have only one line in the shortcut, then add this to the end:
-r320x240 -luqmlog.txt

AH!!! Thank you! That worked! I think there were some conflicting instructions floating around and I was trying to piece them together, hence the multiple lines.
Now to configure the keys and start playing! Thanks again!

Ok, next question
I can get into the game well enough and navigate the menus, but when I select Super Melee to test things out, I can't move the cursor from the '?' icon. I've tried editing the controls in the setup menu, but that doesn't seem to work, since I'm trying to change the commands to keys that are on the Mogul's slide out keyboard. I'm not exactly sure how I should edit the .key file to change things around.
What I want is to either be able to use WASD or the "joystick" on the face of the Mogul to steer/thrust the ship (without having to worry about pressing the 'enter' button), and either of the arrow keys to use as fire/special.

I think something may be conflicting with it, as the cursor isn't solid, but it's rapidly blinking/flashing, like something is keeping it in place. Not sure how else to describe it.

Make sure you are not running two UQM's at once... I've had that happen when I clicked twice on accident - it started two instances of the game.
I.e. Either exit game, or if you can't = reboot the phone. Afterwards start the game again, but be careful not to click it twice.
