LBreakoutHD expects to have write permission on the flat-text database of high scores: -rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1 Jan 1 00:00 /var/tmp/lbreakouthd.hscr For security reasons, this world-writable file will not appear in the built package. On a single-user system, the first instance of running the game (as a nonprivileged user) will create the missing file with safe permissions, and no further intervention is required. On a multi-user system, only the first player to launch the game will have permission to modify the high score list. To allow a shared modifiable list of high scores, you must first recreate the expected file as follows, and add each user to the "games" group. cd /var/tmp touch lbreakouthd.hscr chmod 664 lbreakouthd.hscr chown root:games lbreakouthd.hscr
