    How did you install it. It makes a difference on how you uninstall it.

    Enemy Territory puts an uninstall script in the directory to which you installed it. I believe it's called uninstall.sh or something to that effect. Run that script and it will clear out the install directory. You can then delete that directory. If you installed it to somewhere outside of your /home/ directory you'll need root privileges to run the uninstall script.

    No, you can just delete the /usr/local/games/et directory. Linux does not have a registry. There is likely a hidden .enemy-territory directory in your /home/ folder, but it's just your save games and personal data. Note the period in front. That signifies a hidden directory that will only show up if you use the ls -al command.

    You can delete it, just delete the /usr/local/games/et directory, delete /home/yourusernamehere/.etwolf and the symbolic link in /usr/local/bin and you're set.

    BTW as an ET player, can I ask if you had any other errors? It's probably a fixable bug not being able to load files.
