I have been working on another issue with groups and wonder if yours might be the same problem. Can you run frozen-bubble as same user? If no, how many groups is your user in (ie /etc/groups). Curious if user is in more than 32 groups.
snip from `strace quake.x11`: open("./id1/pak0.pak", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat64("./id1/gfx/pop.lmp", 0xbffff10c) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) fstat64(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0600, st_rdev=makedev(136, 2), ...}) = 0 old_mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x40816000 write(1, "FindFile: can\'t find gfx/pop.lmp"..., 33FindFile: can't find gfx/pop.lmp ) = 33 I haven't actually tested if this works, because I don't have the data yet, but it seems to me that the binary is looking for ./id1/something. So I'd suggest to try running it from /usr/share/games/quake-data/ as a workaround.
quake1 was never really meant to be used :P fixed datafile searching in 2.40-r1 ... the game will now search the normal path (./) and then search the gentoo path (/usr/share/games/quake-data/)
