Bug: 'failed hardware check'

[XtremeBain]

So...Jits, what's up with my failed hardware check? The game isn't running on wetware.  =P

So after figuring out that I need to add 'xbain' to my profile so that I could tag up with [20ID]XBain instead of [20ID]XtremeBain, I got to play a couple minutes before I got kicked for failing the hardware check.  Like TinMan, I'm on Linux.

Code: [Select]

[20ID]XBain failed hardware check.
[20ID]XBain was kicked
You were kicked from the game

Sounds like it's failing to load up the hardware check module.  Are you using a fresh build 18 extraction or what?

Yes

[jitspoe]

I'll check it when I get home.  Maybe it wasn't packaged correctly.

[XtremeBain]

I get it on every B18 server within the first few minutes of playing.

[jitspoe]

Major oversight on my part.  I'll create a new linux package for build 18 as soon as I can.

[XtremeBain]

Sorry I didn't participate in any of the pre-tests

[jitspoe]

It's ok, there were only like 8,000 downloads of build 18.

I've uploaded a new build 18 which should fix the issue.  Give it a try: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/paintball2/paintball2_build018_linux_full.tar.gz?download

[XtremeBain]

Yeah, seems to work.

Hi there.

I have the same problem. I downloaded the latest PB yesterday (paintball2_build018_linux_full.tar.gz) and when i join a server i got tempban in a couple of minutes...

[jitspoe]

Which distro are you using?  32 or 64 bit?  Also, give build 19 a shot: http://dplogin.com/files/clients/linux/paintball2_build019_linux_full_pretest1.tar.gz

[MiDiaN]

Im using slackware 10.1 if I remember right, and 32bit... the game runs fine but I got the msg "failed hardware check" on every server....

Yeah I tried build 19 too but with same error

[jitspoe]

Type this at your linux console:

cd paintball2
ls -l -R > pb2list.txt

Then attach or send me pb2list.txt.  Sounds like some permissions aren't set correctly or something.

[MiDiaN]

Here it is...

[jitspoe]

Well, you've got rwx set on everything, so it shouldn't be any kind of permission issue.  Maybe there's a library it's missing.  Do you have gcrypt installed?

[MiDiaN]

I didnt had gcrypt installed so i fixed it, but still do you know any more important libraries that you need?

[jitspoe]

Still not working even with gcrypt?    I thought I was using pretty much all "standard" libraries.

This is why I hate developing on Linux, though, nothing is standard.
