So I did compile the latest kernel, but haven't installed it yet. I did
this instead.

This was an abandoned game (original site is gone, but there was a copy
of the source here: http://www.ohloh.net/p/Quacker-Blaster). I was
looking for something that just used C++ and SDL so it didn't require
pygame like my previous gyro game.
It is pretty rough, I added an FPS cap - as released the game used 100%
cpu. I think it is too easy even with the duck speed tripled. I
didn't rearrange all the graphics for 480x640, but it is playable.
The paths to the gyro are in the code - they are correct for my 3.12.7
kernel.
If anyone else gets this to work, let me know. Hold the phone still
while starting as the gyros need to calibrate (for < 1 second).
