i can't enable punkbuster, starting the game going on Multiplayer and then clicking on "Punkbuster:>Disabled" gives me the dialog "Enable Punkbaster YES/NO" clicking YES dont turns it ON its still disabled. i try do it manuelly and creating a "pb" directory in ~/.q3a copying the pbweb.x86 making it executable and running it with the result : "**ERROR: No PunkBuster files found at path ~/.q3a/pb" Sounds like Punkbuster need be activate first in multiplayer menu, then it wil create the ~/.q3a/pb directory and put same generely files in it, and then the user wil be able to run the pbweb.x86 to bring it up-to-date. Version quake3-1.33_alpha187 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
read the Quake3 FAQ: http://www.icculus.org/quake3 What doesn't work/known bugs: * Punkbuster, never will work unless even balance makes it so.

that is why we still have 'quake3-bin' in addition to 'quake3' ... you can install them both at the sametime quake3-bin -> use it when you need punk buster quake3 -> everything else
