Tried the opie image again.
Copied all the packages (well most) to my CF card, when I found one that worked, including the Package files etc.
Added lines to ipkg.conf of the type
src src_name /directory/of/packages
tried to update package lists.
Would not work, tried to wget the files.
Tried to local install with:
ipkg install -d root packagename.ipk
Told me it could not find the package.
What am I doing wrong. The simpad does not have a net connection. I just want to play scummvm on it.

Do:
src src_name file:///directory/of/packages
Then run 'ipkg update' to update the list of files, then try installing things.

Thank you good sir. That did the trick.
One hopes you are not too lardy
scummvm doesn not work though, just says bus error.

No idea about that I'm afraid.
