No controls after loading level ->reset machine

(mindrain) #1

Hello everyone,

I installed ET 2.56-2 on my Debian linux machine (as root). The game runs fine until I connect to a server or try to host a game of my own. When the level has been loaded, keyboard or mouse won’t respond at all. The game doesn’t actually freeze, animations work and time counters move, but keyboard or mouse input has no effect. I have to push the reset button.

I’m running a self-compiled 2.6.5 kernel.
I have a Radeon 9600 card with ATI binary drivers ver. 3.7.6
My keyboard and mouse are ordinary PS2 devices

Any help would be appreciated.

This happens to me after i watch a demo using seismovision.
Luckily i have all my movement keys etc bound in my auto exec so when thre map has loaded i just drop the console and type /exec autoexec and i’m fine after that :slight_smile: :banana:

Okay. To be more accurate, the game completely freezes a few seconds after loading the map. This happens every time.

Graphics drivers could be the problem. Can the game be started in a safe mode for debugging?
