Bug#714399: a7xpg: spaceship drifts to upper left corner of screen making gameplay impossible

[Jason Quinn]

Package: a7xpg
Version: 0.11.dfsg1-7
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

* What led up to the situation?

Just tried to play the game.

* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?

Move the spaceship around.

* What was the outcome of this action?

Spaceship drifts to upper-left corner of screen. I can make it move left or
right while it's happening but eventually I'm just pressed against the top of
the screen.

* What outcome did you expect instead?

Can move the spaceship around on the screen.

I had installed this game under Debian Squeeze and had the same issue. I
believe I've install it under older versions of Ubuntu and also had the same
issue. In other words, the game has never worked for me. I'm using a Dell
Inspiron 1720 laptop but I do not think it's a hardware problem because I
*think* I've also installed the game on other machines in the past and had the
same issue.
