ok i tried to delete the line of
Group    0
and that didn't help

would making the line of
Mode 0666
be
Mode 666
?
silly question I know, but I'm kind of grasping at straws here

also I tried reinstalling Enemy Territory .. just in case it had to be 
installed on a system that HAS 3D acceleration..and that didn't help either

also.. i have a side question
how do I go about actually responding to these messages?
I am having to copy and paste the entire message and recreating the 
entire e-mail. (kind of a pain in the butt)
