Re: [hlds_linux] Team Fortress 2 Update Released
Actually, I do. I just removed the software you mentioned, and finally I can play TF2 again! Thanks a lot!

Re: [hlds_linux] Team Fortress 2 Update Released
Please dont update CSS to the new engine! I can no longer play any Source game that uses the latest engine because the game keeps stuttering (graphics and sound). I didnt buy about any Source game just so i can no longer play them.

Re: [hlds_linux] TF2 update coming later today
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Cool, I hope it fixes the client issues I've been having since the last patch. The framedrop I get during the first 15 minutes of running the game is insane, I haven't played a decent game in quite a while now. Would be nice to be able to play again :) -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
Re: [hlds_linux] lags at round end/start *and* during a round
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi, I am also experiencing this end-round lag on my server. Sometimes during a round, but usually when the round ends, it takes around 10-15 seconds for the round to reset (with the "CONNECTON PROBLEM" message at the top-right corner). The strange thing is that when this happens, about 90% of the players are affected, and some are not! Those few lucky players are then already half-way around the map before the others can start buying. This problem seems to appear when there are more than approx. 16-18 players online on the server. I am running a CSS server with 22 slots and the latest build on a linux box. Hopefully Valve will notice us struggling with this problem and do something about it.
