when i try to run cube, i get the following message and the game doesn't start:

[tux@tux cube]$ ./linux_client
init: sdl
init: net
init: world
game mode is ffa/default
init: video: sdl
init: video: mode
init: video: misc
init: gl
init: basetex
couldn't load texture data/newchars.png
could not find core textures (Unsupported image format)
[tux@tux cube]$


file permissions seem to be alright. does anybody know how to solve this ?

this sounds like a 'ran from the wrong place problem'

having not tried cube under linux i cant help you too much, but if its like the windows version there should be some 'running file' in the base cube directory

it sounds like youve been using the binaries directly, which dosent work
