Hi there ( :

I've installed the "tremulous-server" package in ubuntu-repos, and when i start the server it pops up to 90% cpu, is this right? :S
( running on an amd athlon xp 2200+, 512 ram, nVidia geforce ti 4600 128 mb )

And when i start tremulous and search for the local server, none is there. :S
"/connect localhost" wont work neither.

Whats wrong?

90 percent on an empty server? Cool

Make sure you've not underclocked it to the equivelent of a 486 :P

What does the console state? Is the server even finished loading?

That's definitely *NOT* right. Empty Tremulous SVN866 server takes so little CPU on my notebook (Intel Core Duo T2300, 1GB RAM) that I have to sort top's output by command name to actually find it among other processes. Post here the console output.
If my answer to your problem doesn't seem helpful, it means I won't help you until you show some effort to fix your problem yourself!
1.2.0 release's been delayed for 5:48:00 already because of stupid questions.

On my ubuntu server the tremded takes a very little load (Didn't get that packet you did),
Code Select
USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
1000      8224  0.2 17.7 161776 68252 pts/2    Ss+  Dec18  11:41

And it got P3 800mhz ;)

The 1.1.0 tremded uses a lot of CPU time to do nothing. Tremulous packages will likely include the original binaries, meaning that you probably shouldn't use them.
Need help? Ask intelligently. Please share solutions you find.

The Ubuntu tremulous server package (1.1.0-2) eats about 100% cpu (of one core) on an T7200 core2duo system (2ghz 4mb cache).  This is true even if no user is on the server.  I imagine some thread is stuck in an infinite loop.  This sucks, especially on my laptop where I need to conserve battery life and need to remember to
"sudo killall tremulous-server"
before I leave by laptop unplugged for any significant length of time.

Would updating to a newer version of tremulous-server fix this?  If so, should I try to hunt down the Ubuntu package maintainer and tell them to update?  Perhaps he or she is someone who frequents these forums?

I have no idea who made that package, but use the version you can download from here.
Any maps not in the MG repo?  Email me or come to irc.freenode.net/#mg.

tremulous-server package in Ubuntu repos includes the 1.1.0. version, you get same tremulous binary from tremulous.net.
Update your binaries like explained in http://tjw.org/tremulous/SETUP.txt before hosting a thing
