Quake 3 Permission Denied?

[jrbush82]

[root@localhost quake3]# quake3
bash: /usr/bin/quake3: Permission denied

if you notice I am root when I try to run this. I copied the pak0.pk3 from a windows quake cd and installed the latest patch for linux, I was told that would work... anybody have any ideas on what I could have done wrong, and why I'm getting Permission denied while in root?

That would appear to me, that you have created a sript, and have failed to change the permissions. Even though I can't spell.. here is the command:

chmod 755 quake3

that will give root, most likely, (whoever created the file) read write and execute, and everybody else read and execute
