That's a problem with your fgfs then. I guess that the default address localhost:5500 is already used on your system, so it can't be opened again. Your command line works here with fgfs v1.0(pre). (It doesn't with fg/osg, but that's a bug there.) > I downloaded signs and extracted it to /usr/share/games/FlightGear.

It has all the locations in its DB (for which the airports were extracted from the previous version of apt.dat.gz).

But what you can do is to make a link: $ mkdir -p ~/.fgfs/signs $ ln -s ~/.fgfs $FG_ROOT/Local > Also will signs and freq be ready for version 1.0.
