Solved: 8 Years, 1 Month ago Penumbra User Load

Okay I'm having trouble getting the game to run as a user, runs fine if I'm logged in as root, I don't know if there is a setting somewhere in my home directory that is keeping this from loading but it loads as root. Heres the output of my hpl.log file. Oh yeah, I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 and version 1.0.679 of penumbra. The game used to run as user but when I went to load it yesterday It locked the screen....

This is currently a known issue. It *should* run correctly as an unprivileged user when installed as "root" given that the permissions are set correctly on the game install directory.
These should set to be readable by "ALL" and all the folders should be executable by "ALL"

running this as root should fix it.
chmod -R o+rx /path/to/PenumbraEp1
