pssetup black screen
« on: September 15, 2003, 05:14:02 am »
I jsut installed PS on a Linux box running Gentoo distribution and when I click on pssetup I get a black screen.  When I try to run the updater an error \'Couldn\'t find program updater\' comes up.  These things even happen when I log into root, so I\'m really stumped.

Thanks

Console = easy debug

Can you try to launch the progs in console mode? (cd /path/to/directory then ./psclient). So the game will output useful info for debug.

Huh...get this.  I try to run ./pssetup as root and I get a black screen, but when I\'m just a regular user it comes up fine.  I thought root could do anything ;)  Except maybe configure a game :D
