[SOLVED] "player does not have valid Guid"

[Biszkhopt]

Unfortunately i have one issue after another, i finally manage to start a server, i created admin.dat similiar to this one http://tjw.org/tremulous/ADMIN.txt

and when i write in console

/rcon mypasswrd !setlevel myusername 5

it told me that:

myusername does not have valid Guid

Whta might be wrong??                (i have both tremulous.x86 and tremded.x86 from tjw backports)

[Archangel]

You didn't install your client backport correctly.

[Biszkhopt]

i check few times and everything seems to be installed correctly

[David]

The client you are using doesn't have a GUID, ergo, you aren't using an up-to-date-ish client.

OK, so I checked that when I launch game it uses executable file "/usr/bin/tremulous" not "/usr/share/tremulous/tremulous.x86" so I copied it to /bin directory, but when I wanted to launch it, nothing was happening so I exec it in console and this is output:

Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

This is not happening with default tremulous file (but with default i can't give myself admin privileges.

Any ideas??

Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

Is there something else 3d running, or something that would stop it being able to start the 3d stuff?
If your screen / graphics card doesn't support 640x480, then start with +r_mode 6

[Biszkhopt]

The thong is that my xorg.conf have 640x480 mode and if U can see the second executable output, it run in that mode... i really don't know how to fix it

[Bissig]

You seem to have installed tremulous as ROOT? Remove it completely and reinstall it as normal user.

--- snip ---

/root/.tremulous/base

--- snip ---

[Biszkhopt]

OK, I'll try reinstalling all game and installing it as normal user in home directory, I hope it'll work ...

[Biszkhopt]

well i downloaded latest tremulous.x86 from mercenaries guild and now everything is OK.
