Planeshift Version: 3.007
Error message: \"Your updater version is older than server\'s\"
Synopsis: You have the installer package no longer compatible with the server and its files cannot be updated using the updater anymore.
Solution: Remove all directories except art and download the update from http://platyna.xpam.de/planeshift/ (36 MB file).
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: None/Segmentation fault.
Synopsis: Client exits or crashes after creating psnetconnection. This is caused by a bug in Crystal Space texture parser (FIXME).
Solution: Run the updater to make sure all other files are up to date then remove art/effects/flame01.tga file.
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: XML parser error. etc.
Synopsis: Client exits due to XML parser errors.
Solution: Edit your psclient.cfg: find a line:
System.Plugins.iDocumentSystem.1 = crystalspace.documentsystem.xmlread
and change it to:
System.Plugins.iDocumentSystem.1 = crystalspace.documentsystem.tinyxml
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: ./setup.sh: line 57: dialog: command not found
Synopsis: Installer exits due to lack of dialog program, dialog is a part of the most modern distributions as one of the base programs, since many scripts used to configure your system, such like netconfig are using it. It is required program for the Linux Installer to work.
Solution: Install a dialog program.
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: None.
Synopsis: Updater GUI runs very slowly, there are problems with moving mouse cursor on updater\'s window, usually updater doesn\'t update unless you move mouse cursor etc. performance problems. Issue known since 3.009.
Solution: Workaround: run the updater with --auto option which works perfectly.
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: None.
Synopsis: White rectangles appears instead player names.
Solution: Close your client and open data/config/r3dopengl.cfg file in a text editor then find a line:
Video.OpenGL.UseExtension.GL_SGIS_generate_mipmap = false
Uncomment that line (remove a semicolon at the beggining of it).
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: None.
Synopsis: GUI toolbar is deformed and takes almost whole screen.
Solution: Solution for this problem can be found at this thread (http://www.planeshift3d.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=17332&boardid=33&styleid=2).
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: Uncompressing Planeshift Crystal Blue version 3.010....Extraction failed.
Synopsis: Linux installer exists during unpacking itself. Linux Installer cannot be used on a FAT or NTFS filesystem due to files permissions which
cannot be changed without remounting the file system. This message also occurs when you have not enought disk space for temporary files.
Solution: Do not use Linux Installer on FAT or NTFS filesystem, check if you have enought free space in /tmp and destination directory before running the installer.

This is the issue that is being worked on with Jorrit. Anyway reinstalling xorg
after installing nvidia drivers increased my FPS rate, it is still poor but at least
I can walk...
Anyway all issues like that - your are free to make a separate thread on this
forum, so we could look for the solution. This thread I would like to be only
about posting knowns/common issues and their solutions, so it will be easy to
find for others.
Regards.

Hello.
rtfm? Which manual? If you say that, please give the link too. I did not find anything related Segfaults in the manual :(
Planeshift version: 3.010
Error message: None/Segmentation fault.
Synopsis: Client exits or crashes after creating psnetconnection. This is caused by a bug in Crystal Space texture parser (FIXME).
Solution: Run the updater to make sure all other files are up to date then remove art/effects/flame01.tga file.
lol. This seems to be outdated. I do not have any file named (/opt/planeshift/)art/effects/flame01.tga!!
I have different png and part files there but no tng :(
What now.
psclient segfaults with no realy useable errormessage. You can have a strace if you want.
EDIT: Umm sorry to be rude but I trying to get the new client up and running for now 5h. I lost my patience and I am now lost :(
My config is:
Distro: Gentoo
Graphics: NVIDIA Geforce 4
RAM 512

It should be on your install CD, or apt-get if your system uses that. Otherwise, freshmeat knows about most free software:

Sorry I tried to install the Dialog program. I cannot seem to get it to install to the right place. I know where the PS file is. Not the Dialog program to get rid of \'line 57\' prompt.
-
also the same prob with dialog program. I\'m using debian stable (sarge) and the version in teh repository is Version: 1.0-20050306
-
It is not a thread for posting problems. Make a new one. Dialog has to be
installed in system search path eg. /usr/bin.
Regards.
