I have sent the message below twice now, with different subjects and it has failed to show in either version, while other posts I sent before and after were showing up as usual. Can anyone recall seeing this text? It's in reply to the recent thread on Quake 3.
--------------------- I finally got around to doing this (not that I play games of course ;-) and would like to post a small word of warning about the scenario that just bit me: Install Q3 and attempt to run. Up comes a message saying that the permissions on the GLX device are too restrictive to allow this and I should go look at the FAQ kindly provided. The FAQ spells out that the big bad wolf which reads /etc/security/console.perms is setting some permissions too tough and the solution is to edit that file, delete the line starting <dri> then change some permissions to allow Q3 to have its wicked way. Did that. Q3 works. Rebooted. Oops! Critical problem <dri> not known. Respawning too fast yada yada yada. Finally manage to log in as root. Edit the console.perms and see that the line removed (I commented it out actually) defines <dri>, but down further perms for <dri> are set. It doesn't like it when <dri> ain't defined. Remove comment and instead change the perms set for <dri> to the required values. Everyone is happy (inc Q3). This is the first and last time I'll be editing this file on someone else's say so, without bothering to understand what I'm really doing. cheers Brian P.S. Q3 is certainly damn fast on this OS! Can't play it though - gives me motion sickness! Really!
