Re: [hlds_linux] New browser engine support for steam?
Even after you uninstall IE in Windows 7 the dlls that handle the rendering is still there because so many 3rd party applications uses them to render help files and such. So yes they can still expect it to work even if you uninstall it, it's just the gui you uninstall. 1nsane wrote: > Windows 7 has an option to remove IE as part of windows features.

[hlds_linux] Can't query server if -nomaster is used
Hi, Dunno if anyone else posted this, but since last update of vanilla hlds if I use -nomaster I can't query the server for status, but connecting and playing on it works fine if I connect from the console. Removing the -nomaster and the server shows up just fine in the favorite list and I can query it for status again. Anyone else noticed this and is there any fix, beside not using -nomaster? greetings JS ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Re: [hlds_linux] Half-Life 1 Engine Update Released
Alfred posted info about it to the list: We have released an update for the Half-Life 1 engine, run the hldsupdatetool to get the update. This update fixes crashes on startup if you had a banned.cfg and the sv_password state not being displayed properly in the serverbrowser. There is a known bug with servers not listing if you use the setmaster command, so remove any setmaster calls until we can release a fix for the issue. - Alfred We have released an update to the Half-Life 1 engine, run the hldsupdatetool to get the update. This update fixes the "Assert( IsIdxValid(i) )" and then crash error when running a server and fixes a crash on startup under linux if you had virtual interfaces. Known bugs that are still being worked on are the setmaster call stopping server listing and sv_visiblemaxplayers no longer being used. - Alfred Pawel wrote: > Checking bootstrapper version ... > Updating Installation > Updating 'Counter-Strike Base Content' from version 24 to version 25 > > 100.00% /home/gameservers/CS-6411\cstrike\cl_dlls\client.dll > > Checking/Installing 'Linux Server Engine' version 39 > > > Checking/Installing 'Half-Life Base Content' version 12 > > > HLDS installation up to date > > A new update but where is any info about it? :d > ___ > To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please > visit: > http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux > ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
Re: [hlds_linux] Why Valve want to break HL1 engine aftereachupdates...
Sure you are doing the connection right then? Using udp to the port the
server is running on works just fine here.
Beside parsing and error handling this is all I do in the php class I've
written.
fsockopen("udp://" . $hostname, $port, $this->errno, $this->error, 5)
$data =
"\xFF\xFF\xFF\xFF\x54\x53\x6F\x75\x72\x63\x65\x20\x45\x6E\x67\x69\x6E\x65\x20\x51\x75\x65\x72\x79\x00";
fwrite($this->socket, $data, strlen($data))

Re: [hlds_linux] selecting Content Server for Steam updates
Hi, Found this old information on the list: "We released the new HldsUpdateTool today, which has the capability to let people suggest preferred content servers. To use it, you need to create a file in the same directory as the tool called Steam.cfg (the S has to be uppercase on Linux), and put the following line in it: PreferredContentServerIDs = "x y z etc" (again case is important) Where x y and z are the IDs of the CSes they'd like to go to first. EG computergames.ro would put "1 31". You can list as many as you want." greetings JS Timo Hilbertz wrote: hi list, we already tried several ways to define a specific content server, when running a ./steam -command update including setting up PreferredContentServerIDs in a Steam.cfg file located next to the steam binary, but without success.

[hlds_linux] Day of Defeat: Source characters in the name that screws up the terminal
Hi, Noticed this when I was watching the console. Also when I opened the log file I had to do a reset for the terminal to resume normal output.

Re: [hlds_linux] Half-Life 1: Engine update released
Hi,
What I did find out is that the server will only crash when running
glibc 2.3.2 on Linux kernel 2.6.12.1, running kernel 2.6.8 works without
no problem. I have not tested the kernels between those two. Upgrading
to glibc 2.3.5 on kernel 2.6.12.1 made the problem go away. I've also
talked a bit with Alfred off-list and he confirmed the problem on my
server and ran some debugging on it. I've also gave him access to
another server we have here so he could debug it better, but I guess he
left work before reading my last reply. He also told me that he might
have a solution for it.
If you are running Linux and have this problem just upgrade the glibc to
2.3.5 and you should be all right.
greetings

Here's what I've found for BSD users (linux users might want to

from 2001 era)..
VERY old glibc's, linux_base is redhat-6 :)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] egrep -r glibc-2.2 linux_*

Somewhat newer glibc's:

linux_base-8/Makefile: glibc-2.3.2-4.80.8.${ARCH}.rpm:new \

linux_base-suse-9.3/files/rpmlist.conf:glibc|glibc-2.3.4-23.2.i586.rpm||on
I removed linux_base-8 (glibc 2.3.2) and used the suse 9.3 base
(glibc 2.3.4) and I don't have any problems. If you chose to upgrade
glibc (older linux versions like redhat 8 do not have updated glibc
packages so you might be out of luck), so in effect, glibc versions <
2.3.4 aren't recommended for newer hl1.6 binaries.

Re: [hlds_linux] Counter-Strike and Half-Life 1: Engine update
Hi, I get this after upgrading: gid.cpp (101) : GID System not inited It's showing when the first player joins after a restart. Server seems to run fine, anything I should worry about? Server is running Linux 2.6.x.y and glibc 2.3.2 greetings Joachim Sehlstedt Alfred Reynolds wrote: We have released an update to Counter-Strike and the Half-Life 1: Engine. Run the hldsupdatetool to get this update. If you run ANY server that uses the Half-Life 1: Engine (i.e TFC, DMC, NS, DoD, etc) then you should get this update. This update enables VAC2 by default for all Half-Life 1: Engine dedicated servers and fixes a couple potential exploits. To disable VAC protection for your server add "-insecure" to the command line when you run it. The update also disables old style queries by default. To enable old queries set "sv_enableoldqueries" to "1" (this is NOT recommended, if you set this you will expose your server to a potential DDoS attack).
