Watching Demos

I lately got some problems when I want to watch ETPro Demos. I always get the message following message if I want to view a demo:
Client/Server game mismatch: 'Enemy Territory/ETPro'
I start et with the command-line parameters:
startet +set fs_game etpro
ETPro also adds a menu item called 'ETPRO', but if I click on it, the screen just removes the current menu and then draws it immediately again.
There is a workaround to this. I start ET and connect to a server that is already running ETPro, then I can choose the ETPRO menu item or play a demo.
Usually I could just double-click on a demo in my filebrowser, then a demo-replay script was executed, doing some filecopying and starting et with the params to also immediately play this demo. This is of course no longer working.
*edit* I am using linux Ubuntu 6.06
Solved:
I copied the cgame.i386.so and the ui.mp.i386.so in $ET_BASE_DIR/etmain/ to $ET_BASE_DIR/etpro/ and it works now to watch the replays. I think copying only the cgame.i386.so would have solved the problem, too. I still can't use the ETPRO menu item after I have started ET - I think that is because of the ui.mp.i386.so, but I have no Idea and don't care.
