Here is the script:

--------------------------------
[game@srv ~/bf2]$ cat start.sh
#!/bin/sh

MACH=""
# 64-bit FreeBSD is "amd64"; emulates 32-bit Linux.
case `uname -m` in
        i[3456]86 | amd64) MACH="ia-32"
        ;;
        x86_64) MACH="amd-64"
        ;;
esac

if ! [ -d pb ]
then
        ln -s pb_$MACH pb
fi

BINARY_DIR="$(pwd)/bin"
if [ -d "$BINARY_DIR/$MACH" ]
then
        BINARY_DIR="$BINARY_DIR/$MACH"
fi

# Make the OS give us .core-dumps if the server crashes
ulimit -c unlimited

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$BINARY_DIR
exec $BINARY_DIR/bf2 "$@"
-------------------------------------

Looks like the freebsd one. So you're suggesting the linux one in /compat/bin ?

Hi Guys,

I am trying to run a battlefield 2 server on FreeBSD 8.2 with linux emulation enabled, I have some other apps that run just fine.

Here is the error I get:

[game@srv ~/bf2]$ ./start.sh
Error opening terminal: xterm.

[game@srv ~/bf2]$ echo $TERM
xterm

I can "export TERM" and set another value but the result is always the same it will just say "Error opening terminal <whatever>"

I have a suspicion it's to do with the termcap in the linux compat section, not the local freebsd termcap.

IMO: There is not enough info to conclude this.

It is not obvious which shell is used to execute start.sh (linux
shell  or FreeBSD shell). To determine this we need to see the first
line of  the script. I would expect a FreeBSD one is started and I
would  suggest to try a linux one instead.

Did you see any messages on the console (run "dmesg" after a failed
start and have a look for unusual output).

I would also suggest to have "set -x" as the second line in the
script, this will give you a trace what is executed. The output needs
to be reviewed then to analyze what is going on. After a suspicious
action is tracked down, this action can maybe started within ktrace
and the linux_kdump port can then be used to further investigate what
is going on.

Bye,
Alexander.
