Description nm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-09 03:26:56 UTC
I installed urbanterror, which pulled in quake3-bin and quake3-bin-teamarena.

When I tried to run urbanterror, it fails silently. So I went to run quake3-bin and quake3-bin-teamarena separately, just to see what's up. Turns out they refuse to run in the first place. I get the same failure when attempting to run either quake3-bin binary. Here's the output:


$ quake3-bin-teamarena

This is on a fresh install of the game. I'm already in the games group; all other (non-quake-based) games installed work just fine. Not really sure what to make of this.
