Hi I recently installed the quake-ql amd quake stub packages on my box (latest potatoe) and there appears to be a major screw-up somewhere!!
here's what written to the terminal I run quake-gl from ~$ quake-gl Removing symlink ./id1 ln: cannot create symbolic link `/home/rjplus/.quake/./base/base' to `/usr/share/games/quake/./base': Permission denied ourbase /usr/share/games/quake/id1 basename of ourbase id1 QuakeForge (UQuake) v0.1.0 Added packfile ./base/pak0.pak (339 files) Added packfile ./base/pak1.pak (85 files) Playing registered version.

You got the shells You got the Grenade Launcher You receive 25 health You get 2 rockets Couldn't write config.cfg. the last line occours when I quit. It runs but the screen is very dark. attempting to save a game give a permission denied error. There are no man pages ??? What options does the program take (if any) where are the config files stored? Any help would be appreciated - thanks in advance Roy Pluschke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
