I need some help with xchat....
I want to connect to my bnc, but i simply cant find the field where i have to insert port and password.
Could someone help me there?
Next problem:

theo@theo-desktop:~$ /home/theo/Desktop/et-linux-2.55.x86.run
bash: /home/theo/Desktop/et-linux-2.55.x86.run: Permission denied
theo@theo-desktop:~$ xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
theo@theo-desktop:~$ sh /home/theo/Desktop/et-linux-2.55.x86.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

do i have to enter a server addr like this: e.g. : sky.getpro.co.uk:2003
or where does the port need to be added?
Do i need to enter the pw in Server-Password or Nickserv-Paswword?

Try searching for "libgtk-1.2" or "glibc-2.1" in the package manager (go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager and perform a search (ctrl+f) for those packages). If you don't have them already, install them through the package manager and then try to run the ET installer again.

If I recall correctly you just have to put those files in the appropriate directories in the .etwolf folder (which should be located at /home/theo/.etwolf/ in your case -- it's a hidden folder though, so you have to reveal it by pressing ctrl+h). You should have permission to create/delete files in your own home directory, so you shouldn't have any problems moving files into that directory.

i dont have that directory :S (i tried ctrl + h, and some folders showed up, but not .etwolf nor nay other directory related to et)
The game is located at /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/ and i cant change anything there....

Strange. Perhaps my memory fails me. Anyway, if you want to try to move/copy files into the directory /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/, open the terminal and use one of the following commands:

Quotesudo mv /path/to/file /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/
(in case you want to move a file located in /path/to/ to the specified directory)

Quotesudo cp /path/to/file /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/
(in case you want to copy a file located in /path/to/ to the specified directory)

Example: If you want to move the file "config.cfg" that is located in /home/theo/ to the specified directory, you would type:

Quotesudo mv /home/theo/config.cfg /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/


EDIT: And of course, all commands should be entered without the quotation marks (").

the .etwolf folder was actually there, but i had to type "sudo nautilus" to make it appear.
What is the command to run something with sudo?
Iam asking much questions i know :p
thanks for the info anyway <3

It depends on what you want to run. Anyway, you should really try to run the following command in the terminal:

Quotesudo chown -R theo:theo ~/.etwolf/


It should give you read/write permission to the .etwolf directory and thus solve your problems. By the way, patching the game shouldn't be a problem.

seems that it only exists on home/root or something,because i get theo@theo-desktop:~$ sudo chown -R theo:theo ~/.etwolf/
chown: Zugriff auf „/home/theo/.etwolf/“ nicht möglich: No such file or directory
 when i type the command u gave me above...
