Forgot to say... I don't understand why the same file appears repeated with a . more on the name, some bug on my build? icon.dat exists but not icon.dat.
Here is a ls -R:
# ls -R

simon.voc xmscheck.exe
drivers.red esp-hlp.doc french/ icon.dat install.exe itxt.fre itxt.ita itxt.txt setd.snd spanish/

It isn't possible to play this version of Simon the Sorcerer 1 directly from the CD under ScummVM anymore.
If you want to leave the majority of data files on the CD: Copy the icon.dat to the hard disk. Add the game by manually editing ScummVM config file. Set game path to location of 'icon.dat' Set the extra path to language directory for game (ie french)
Otherwise just copy the complete data files for each language to the hard disk.
The filenames have an extra '.' at the end, when using Simon the Sorcerer 1/2 CDs under certain operating system (ie unix). That is why ScummVM checks for both 'filename' and 'filename.'.

Sorry for the repeated post, I updated wrongly and then the message was posted again. Please clean this if necessary.
I forgot to say that I copied the files to the hard disk drive and the problem is exactly the same.
I edited manually and put this on scummvmrc:
[simon1] gfx_mode=advmame3x description=Simon the Sorcerer 1 Talkie (French) music_volume=192 speech_volume=192 path=/var/teemp/simon1/ aspect_ratio=true extrapath=/var/teemp/simon1/french/ music_driver=auto subtitles=true platform=pc gameid=simon1 language=fr fullscreen=true sfx_volume=192 talkspeed=60 speech_mute=false
The error message:

I was mistaken in earlier message, using the extra path won't work in this situation.
You will need to copy the required data files for each language version, to a separate directory. ie For French verison, copy icon.dat, simon.voc and the contents of french directory to a single directory.
Check http://scummvm.sourceforge.net/documentation.php?view=datafiles for details on the exact data files required.
You can still use the extra path, to share the single speech file between all four language versions though.

Now when it tries to run the game (even the screen it's in black), scummvm crashes giving me the following message:
Looking for simon1 Trying to start game 'Simon the Sorcerer 1' [1] 441 segmentation fault (core dumped) scummvm
But only when using AdvMame3x/HQ3x/3x, with other scalers the game runs correctly. My screen resolution is 1280x1024.
A weird thing is that I didn't needed to copy the files in older ScummVM versions, why now it's needed? Why not autodetect the directories instead using this tricky method? It can be more user-friendly :)
Thanks a lot for the reply ;)

Please, anyone can reply this? It seems there are some weird bug with the filter, now sure if related to my platform (DragonFly BSD 1.6.1). I may test a SVN build here if needed.
About needing to copying files... Why not autodetecting this version instead moving files? Does it's difficult for the ScummVM game detector?
