The game starts, but when I try to start a server, it immediatly stops it again after it fails to connect to it. I removed ~/.xtux before starting, so the game was started with just the default options. Output on console: az@acompneu ~ $ xtux Starting server. Error starting server connect: Connection refused Starting server. Error starting server connect: Connection refused Free'd 2 images
Perhaps the game/ebuild is also outdated? (If 20030306 is really the date...)

That does seem to be the very latest release...
Works fine for me on stable x86. Do you already have something on port 8390 (the default port) ? Try to figure out why the server isn't starting on your system. I type xtux, press a key, press enter for Play, press enter for Start a New Game... game starts.
(In reply to comment #4) > I type xtux, press a key, press enter for Play, press enter for Start a New > Game... game starts. > Exactly what I did. And does not start here: az@acompneu ~ $ xtux Starting server. Error starting server connect: Connection refused I also tried different ports but with no success. The default port should also be open: az@acompneu ~ $ nc -vv -l -p 8390 listening on [any] 8390 ... connect to [127.0.0.1] from localhost [127.0.0.1] 45367 huhu there sent 0, rcvd 11
I recompiled the game and it starts the server now. Probably there were some problems because the last build was very old: acompneu ~ # genlop -l | grep xtux Tue Sep 28 15:53:02 2004 >>> games-arcade/xtux-20030306 Tue Nov 30 20:03:10 2004 >>> games-arcade/xtux-20030306 Tue Sep 2 20:22:41 2008 >>> games-arcade/xtux-20030306 Though, I have other problems now. I played a bit and in the second screen, the games segfaults while I tried to shoot.
