Please check the permissions on the .fs2_open directory in your home folder, make sure that the files are readable in that folder. Also, try giving wxLauncher a try if you havent already.

I am also getting this problem on OS X 10.7 with r9367, Debug Inferno and wxLauncher 0.9.1. The crazy thing is, the data is _written_ to the ~/Library/FS2_Open/fs2_open.ini file. It is then just ignored. The wxLauncher is also not reading the Connection Type and Speed from that file, even though it's written successfully as well. The permissions on the file are 644, and I'm running everything as the same user. Other things in it, such as the last player, seem to be utilized by the game.

Oh man, just saw something strange as I was debugging while typing this.

After a run of the game where I save this info, this is my fs2_open.ini:

[Default]
VideocardFs2open=OGL -(640x480)x32 bit
TextureFilter=1
OGL_AnisotropicFilter=0
OGL_AntiAliasSamples=0
SoundDeviceOAL=Built-in Output
CurrentJoystick=99999
EnableJoystickFF=0
EnableHitEffect=0
NetworkConnection=LAN
ConnectionSpeed=Fast
LastPlayer=chief1983M

[Sound]
PlaybackDevice=Built-in Output
CaptureDevice=Built-in Microphone

[PXO]
FS2OpenPXO=1
Login=chief1983
Password=<password>
SquadName=

After I hit 'Play' again in wxLauncher, I output that file again, and saw this:

[Default]
VideocardFs2open=OGL -(640x480)x32 bit
TextureFilter=1
OGL_AnisotropicFilter=0
OGL_AntiAliasSamples=0
SoundDeviceOAL=Built-in Output
CurrentJoystick=99999
EnableJoystickFF=0
EnableHitEffect=0
NetworkConnection=LAN
ConnectionSpeed=Fast
[Sound]
PlaybackDevice=Built-in Output
CaptureDevice=Built-in Microphone

So I added the info again, closed wxLauncher, and opened the app directly. Information is saved! Seems this is a wxLauncher bug after all, not a *nix bug.

Just to let the people who aren't on the wxL ticket know, an experimental patch has been posted there. http://code.google.com/p/wxlauncher/issues/detail?id=97#c3 Please test and provide feedback there.

chief1983: The connection settings issue should be fixed in trunk http://code.google.com/p/wxlauncher/source/detail?r=dcd1d6405db40e032e1fe4903c75a36a25acdca4

chief1983 and Siechtum have verified that the patch works, so it was committed to wxL trunk. http://code.google.com/p/wxlauncher/source/detail?r=17453e162c85

This ticket can now be closed.

wxL has been patched. No need to track this here any longer.
