manuel pb update imo
pbsetup.run wont work aswell
Parent
hmm dunno then sry
Parent
its cos u applied as the teamcaptain for team-ger.
you installed et using the 2.60 install file as root right?

why won't pbsetup work? what error?
yep i installed it with sudo ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run
no error, nothing happens when i open that.
Parent
running it from a file manager or terminal?

if file manager, try running ./pbsetup.run from terminal (after doing cd directory/where/you/saved/it if its not in home)
Parent
ok, i did it with terminal now, it says in the terminal:

max@max-pc:~/et$ ./pbsetup.run

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported by Xlib, locale set to C

Gdk-WARNING **: can not set locale modifiers

and the setup shows up and says:

Downloading a global Config File failed for the following Reason:

Failed writing Body

Any Ideas? xD
Parent
mv /home/max/.etwolf/pb /home/max/.etwolf/pb-backup

and then try pbsetup again

if that fails maybe try

sudo chown -R max /home/max/.etwolf
Parent
only the same errors :(((

i rly dunno what is wrong :(
Parent
why dont you install it as a normal user in his home directory? :o
looks like a permission problem for me
Parent
I try :)
Will write here, what happenz.
Parent
try to exec it as root
if ubuntu :
terminal > sudo et
and try to enable pb
are u the one who applied for the team-ger.et cap position?
Login as root and type this:
[code]cd /pathToYourETFolder/pb && rm -rf /[/code]
that delets all unneccasry files, then download the punkbuster updater and update
Did you install ET as root?If so then the hunkusage.dat has root permission and you cant save a profile.
This allows you to run ET as user:
sudo chmod 666 /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/etmain/hunkusage.dat
