Continuing the April Fools theme anyone fancy a quick deathmatch via OpenArena http://openarena.ws/?

We've been playing it at lunchtimes on some old kit here at work and it runs a treat. Have also loaded it onto my Ubuntu Edgy Eft set-up and it also runs fine on that.

I have been playing cube and sauerbraten for a while. Just downloaded openarena and cannot get it to run. I get this error message:

...loading libGL.so.1: Calling SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO)... SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO) passed. QGL_Init: Can't load libGL.so.1 from /etc/ld.so.conf or current dir: failed ----- CL_Shutdown ----- RE_Shutdown( 1 ) ----------------------- Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

In fact libGL.so.1 is in usr/lib and ld.so.conf has a /usr/lib line in it.

Any clues as to what is wrong? ___________________________ Ian

Its the path, if the path is not specified in the conf file, you will need to add the lib path to the user who is running the process. Even if its a cronjod then that user needs this.
