I know this is being a bit picky, but did you remove it completely before the re-install? I had to remove it and follow the instructions (loosely of course) for the complete removal of 2.4 before the upgrade to 2.5 so that when I reinstalled 2.5 it was a clean install with no luggage left over from the previous install. Thats when it started working..

Same problem here, but it usually fixes with a "killall python2.5 && killall quetoo".

I had 2.5 before (not 2.4) so it was an uninstall followed by install (ie. reinstall). Is there a trick to fully remove 2.5?

In red pill mode I've now removed ALL progs beginning with python plus kagu which was holding python. Then reinstalled python2.5-runtime and quetoo, and now all works fine

Thanks for the hint tobiasj

I left my charger at work and the battery is with red status. So today I won't be able, but what about arranging a deathmatch let's say everyday @ 21:00 Greenwich time?
May be a time around noon would be more suitable at it will be day for most players, but many are at work at this time.

I also get a warning about libglade not understanding do_overwrite_confirmation for class 'GtkFileChooserDialog' but this warning is probably harmless because i fixed it and still have shutdown problem.
Had forgotten to move the main windows destroy signal, when I moved things to the separate config dialog, so the launcher didn't close properly when closed with the x. This'll be fixed in the next version, but for now you should use the close button to close the launcher.

I have a bit newer version of glade on my desktop than the device has, but it should just ignore any settings it doesn't understand. But that should not make browse dialog not appear, if anyone's still having this problem, it would help if you could post any output from the launcher, when run from xterm, when started and when the browse button is clicked.

Also noticed typing the basedir manually didn't work, I've also fixed this for next version.

s_volume 0.1
unbindall
bind uparrow +forward
bind downarrow +back
bind leftarrow +left
bind rightarrow +right
bind enter +moveup
bind f4 help
bind leftctrl +attack
bind f7 weapnext
bind x +movedown
sv_enforcetime 0
m_filter 0
timedemo 0

I would rather turn when using the left and right arrows and then for straifing use 'a' and 'd' (no mouse look) plus I want the control key to be fire, and none of those changes work. (I have not added a and d yet since whats the point...)

The +right and +left are from http://console.planetquake.gamespy.c...ake_2.html#h-2
but dont work, in fact, it still straifs left and right when I use them.
I did try both ctrl and leftctrl to no avail. Does anyone know how to make this work?
I moved the default autoexec.cfg (the one that gets copied to the when you set basedir) to /usr/share/quetoo/quake2/baseq2/ with the third release, which also happens to be the default basedir, so it seems the game is now executing that instead of the one in the basedir set in the launcher. So you'll need to modify that, if you want to change the keys. I'll think of some better way to handle this for the next version.

Fourth release is now ready and again available from http://www2.lut.fi/~thietan1/quetoo/. This mainly fixes problems with the launcher, like the icons and closing the window. Only new features are a combo box for selecting the player skin in the launcher (you'll need the players folder from your quake2 cd in the baseq2 folder on your device for this to work properly) and the autoexec.cfg is no longer copied to the basedir (and even if it is there, it does nothing), instead the launcher now tries to exec an user.cfg if placed there, where you can change the default key bindings or any other settings.

For me anything not between 04:00 GMT and 13:00 GMT would be fine, looking at what others posted as their timezones, perhaps 22:00 GMT would be good?

I finally got the paks. Copied the entire baseq2 (heavy 214MB) on the card, set the dir in launcher and nobody. Started it in terminal and when I hit Launch it spits out an error about unable to find pics/colormap.pcx. It's there, checked it. runing quetoo with params in xterm gives the same.

Are you sure you have the folder that has the baseq2 folder set in the launcher and not the baseq2 folder itself? Meaning if your paks are in /media/mmc2/quake2/baseq2/, then the path in the launcher should be /media/mmc2/quake2.

If that's not it, perhaps there was some error in copying the paks, you could try recopying them to the card. You also only need the paks and the players folder in baseq2. Mine are 198.4 MB.
