I have had troubles to run the steambinary in FreeBSD since 5.x. Some things to check: What kernelversion are you using in the linuxulator? It might be something missing in the linuxulator. Try both 2.4.2 and 2.6.18 ( Dont remember if it is .18, you might want to check that out first ) Also are you using SMP? I have troubles running the steambinary when SMP is enabled. Same machine without the SMP, it runs OK. At least that was the issue when I tried it with 5.x, but that was million of years ago. I use a central server to check out everything from steam. That server is running FreeBSD 4.11. Then I just make a gzipped tarball out of the changes and push the data out to the servers. A little primitive, but it works. Plus I can do a rollback if necissary. /Bjorn _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
