Wow! Looks like the game selection for the default installation I did
in the past was not that wrong. :-)

"Lost connection to MySQL server during query". Hmm, is there already

Racer has been dropped a long time ago (see Wishlist for reasons),
Glest is simply to big and Cube is a 1st person shooter, which we
