Hi Thom,

Thanks for looking in to that.

With what you said I thought about checking the permissions on pak0.pk3 
and found that only root could read it. I used chmod +r on the file and 
now all users can play the game, without needing the root password 
(which I feel is a good thing!

Thanks again for taking the time to look into it for me, I really 
appreciate it.

-Chris
