Some bugs using Tremulous gpp under Kubuntu
« on: February 20, 2010, 03:56:10 pm »
Hi guys.

I'm trying to apply the tremulous-gpp on kubuntu karmic koala but gets some bugs...

I successfully installed it (it's simple, just put it in "/usr/share/games/tremulous" and create a launcher in kmenu with the file "/usr/share/games/tremulous/tremulous-gpp.x86"), but i am gettings some bugs:

- the game close itself when it want... (i get back to kde and the game shut down)
- I cannot download maps and updates neither when i pick server nor i pick website download.
- when i close the game, all options set the defaults ones (even the nickname)

I wondered if there are a .deb or .run file has the tremulous-gpp without i need to get the tremulous 1.1 like a base or if i can get the tremulous-gpp like a source...

(sorry for my weak English)

If you run it from a console it should print a load of stuff.  Post it up here any we should be able to see why it crashed.

It not saving is probably a permission error.  It saves to ~/.tremulous/gpp/autogen.cfg.  If you do "chown $UID:$GROUPS -R ~/.tremulous/ ; chmod u=rwX,go= -R ~/.tremulous" it should fix any permission problems.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

Sounds like game has crashed on you if you can find out how to reproduce it the devs will fix it
- I cannot download maps and updates neither when i pick server nor i pick website download.
do you have curl installed(thats what trem uses to get http data)?could be permission issues like david said too
- when i close the game, all options set the defaults ones (even the nickname)
could be permission issues. what does console say does it have this when execing autogen.cfg: "Cbuf_InsertText: overflow" could also be permission issues
