Are you just trying to start the game, or does it happen after connecting to a certain server?

If server isn't upgraded yet, you'd get this error, cause it would have a different pak0.pk3 and sv_pure makes you then not load pak0, which contains default.cfg

I have a similar problem.
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and i can not start OA.
When i type it into a command line, i get back that the game couldnt load default.cfg.
I also had the problem with 0.7.7 but it was solved, when getdeb.org released the OA package.

Have you tried unpacking the zip archive and simple double clicking the binary?

Problem resolved by re-install the game.

You need to select "Re-create folders" under "Actions" in Archive Manager when you extract the files from the zip.
