  1. Unusual client startup message.

    I'm running the Linux client (2007/12/11 cvs version because std 1.5.0 was crashing) and I got an unusual message at startup today. When it got to the screen with progress bar bar a box popped up, in the client, saying something like "client updated, restarting now", and the client restarted. Is this usual? I've never seen this before, so I was wondering. I did search the forums but found nothing about this (actaully got no results, is the search working?).
  2. Unusual client startup message.

    Nothing, really. It was just the first time that I saw that with elc, it said the client had been updated and I was not aware that elc was self-updating (apart from data in ~/.elc/). Like I said I couldn't find anything in the forums about it, so I decided to ask to make sure no 3b1l h4XX0rs were at work Not that I thought that. It's just better to ask a stupid question then not to ask when you should. EDIT Was that message because there was a larger than normal update to the data in ~/.elc/ , by the way? I had'nt logged in with linux for a couple of weeks.
  3. Update problems

    Under "Options", "Misc" tab do you have "save ini" ticked? This saves your options on exit
  4. Update problems

    I have write permission to my home directory (40711). I checked the permissions on my ~/.elc/ directory. For some reason they are 40750 (drwxr-x---). My old ~/.elc/ directory, which I backed up is 40755 (drwxr-xr-x). I have changed its permissions and that of the subdirectories to 40755 Things have been running ok, even before changing the permissions. I have placed the *.elm.txt files and quest.log back and turned back on some graphics options (music and sound firmly off). So far it is behaving. UPDATE: compiled client from CVS, still getting errors about writing to ~/.elc/custom/ but sound and music works
  5. Update problems

    ATI Radeon 9600XT 128Mb AMD AthlonXP 2800+ 2 Gig RAM Slackware-current Xorg 7.3, xorgserver 1.4 kernel 2.6.23.9-smp andrew@foobar:/usr/local/games/el$ fglrxinfo display: :0.0 screen: 0 OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc. OpenGL renderer string: ATI RADEON 9600 Series OpenGL version string: 2.1.7059 Release andrew@foobar:/usr/local/games/el$ glxinfo |grep direct direct rendering: Yes Eternal Lands installed to /usr/local/games/el/, data_dir pointing to that. EL ran OK with sound turned off. Copied map notes (*.elm.txt), spells and quest files across. EL froze hard on startup at the part saying something like Initialising Opengl Extensions , requiring a hard reboot. Deleted map notes (*.elm.txt), spells and quest files, and turned off everything in el.ini that could be turned off EL ran again Looked in my spells_autumwood.dat from 1.40 and found this towards the end /home/andrew/.elc/el.cfg - for some reason the editor wont let me paste the contents of the dat file :/ there is no similar line in the new spells_autumnwood.dat created after I placed a spell in the quickbar. Could this cause a freeze that bad? It doesn't appear to have produced a server log when freezing.

  6. Gamma control under Linux/Beryl

    amdcccle does control gamma, and xgamma -gamma x.x in a console window also controls gamma, but be careful how you use xgamma, from what I remember, its effects can vary wildy, depending on your card and driver.
