Re: [hlds_linux] Release pending
I know there are some bugs fixed in this release, as far as VAC2 goes I don't know anything about that, but if it is something major Valve probably would have given a heads up ahead of time as they have courteously done in the past.

Engine update
Couple of points of interest to server operators in this release.
1) The new querying subsystem has been implemented in HL1 now, the old
(vulnerable) protocol will be disabled in a future update (in the
next month or so). MAKE SURE TO UPDATE YOUR EXTERNAL TOOLS NOW. This
process has already happened for the Source engine so hopefully your
tools already work with the new query format.
2) Under Linux you now need at least GLIBC 2.3.2 (i.e what the Source
engine requires) to run the new VAC code. If your distribution is too
old you will see something like this in the console:
-
Error:./vstdlib_s_i486.so: undefined symbol: __cxa_atexit Could not
establish connection to Steam servers (steamclient).
-
You should upgrade your Linux distribution in this case. If you do
not upgrade you will not be able to run a secure server once the new
VAC system is released.

[hlds_linux] What am I doing wrong? Horrible horrible performance in FreeBSD...
I'm new to linux but not to CS1.6 server issues. I was attempting to setup a quick FreeBSD CS 1.6 server and ran into issues...I choose FreeBSD because of the supposed security benefits over linux distros. I did some quick performance testing using both FreeBSD and Debian on the same system. I used -pingboost 3 with hlds_run and set the sys_ticrate to 1. When using the stats command, the fps in FreeBSD fluctuates wildly (and boy do I mean wildly), anywhere from 250 - 1000 fps while using pingboost 3.While using Debian, the fps was relatively solid (it was around 900-1000 fps) This is an absolutely incredible performance difference and I am guessing it is because FreeBSD uses the Linux compatibility layer? That is a complete guess however... I know that many of the top game hosting companies use FreeBSD (like griffinrun.com) but I don't understand how they did it. Any guidance would be MUCH appreciated. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

No no. I meant if someone needed to use it for whatever reason not that you guys changed it for whatever reason. I know exactly why you changed it and that it was necessary to change it.

[hlds_linux] sv_enableoldqueries not working
I do have sv_enableoldqueries 1 set, however I don't seem to be able to query the servers still :/ Updating to a newer qstat isn't a problem, just waiting for the code to be updated completely. Is there a fix for enabling old queries? -Scott ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
Re: [hlds_linux] Steam Update Tool - Core Dump?
You tried all that and didnt occur to you its probably a FreeBSD bug? I still say strace the process and find out what the heck is going on. It might just be a kernel param you can change. -sb On 6/7/05, e-Plutonia [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Alfred, I tried suse, debian, rh8 , rh9, all of them in a row, I am severely pissed right now at my boxes.

[hlds_linux] The update broke HLSW?
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Since the update HLSW reports a timeout on my server(CS1.6 AMXMODX v1.01, MM 1.17.4). Connections through the Steam games browser work fine and the game seems to be playable as always. Even that new VAC warning message at the bottom of the recources loading dialog window shows up. Is anyone alse experiencing this? Tom -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
