I've got to ask, what is the purpose of using the games group? I have about 100 games on my computer and Firestorm is the only program that uses this group.

Are you in the games group?

The newest update is giving the error "/usr/bin/firestorm: Permission denied". It seems all executables are set as non-executable.

The launcher bundled with Firestorm attempts to locate necessary graphics drivers in a large set of directories, but Arch ships them in a different location. Below is a diff file that one could use to patch the firestorm launcher, located in /opt/firestorm. Alternatively, just add ":/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri:/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri" to the 2 appropriate lines in the launcher file yourself; they aren't hard to find. BEGIN firestorm_patch.diff: 88c88 < export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH="/usr/lib64/dri:/usr/lib32/dri:/usr/lib/dri:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri" --- > export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH="/usr/lib64/dri:/usr/lib32/dri:/usr/lib/dri:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri:/usr/lib32/xorg/modules/dri" 90c90 < export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH="${LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH}:/usr/lib64/dri:/usr/lib32/dri:/usr/lib/dri:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri" --- > export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH="${LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH}:/usr/lib64/dri:/usr/lib32/dri:/usr/lib/dri:/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri:/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri:/usr/lib32/xorg/modules/dri" END firestorm_patch.diff I've verified that firestorm launches with this modification.

I am able to install but the program will not run. I think this error is the culprit and I am unable to figure out how to fix it: libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast Thanks

So this is probably something more related to my system. But i formated my system last night and after installing firestorm again it will not load. I get Bad window(invalid window parameter). I run openbox as a WM with latest nvidia drivers. Any ideas? All worked fine before EDIT: I think this might have to do with having both the Proprietary Nvidia driver and Nouveau installed...will update..EDIT2: The problem here was having mesa-libgl installed instead of nvidia-libgl thank you for posting this to AUR and keeping it updated
