please split this report, if those errors are not related.

i've created an account and logged in successfully on the website.
the game-client was downloaded and extracted as per the instructions here.
however, i ran into several problems:
- clicking the "Configuration"-button does nothing for me - it was the first thing i tried, as i naturally configure apps before using them
- when logging into the game, the client hangs at the "connecting"-screen
- the "Quit Game"-button on that screen does nothing for me
- when closing the application, it reports an XIO-error (fatal error 11) on the terminal

here is what i did in detail:
- wget and unzip the client, cd and run it, it opens in a 1024x768 window
- click configuration
- change resolution to 1280x1024 (my native resolution) with the right-arrow-button right of the resolution-field on the bottom-left
- enter my account-details and login
- wait several minutes at the "connecting" screen
- click "Quit game"
- close the window

result on the console:
XIO: fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
after 14075 requests (14075 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
AL lib: ALc.c:1879: exit(): closing 1 Device
AL lib: ALc.c:1808: alcCloseDevice(): destroying 1 Context(s)
AL lib: ALc.c:1420: alcDestroyContext(): deleting 36 Source(s)
AL lib: ALc.c:1818: alcCloseDevice(): deleting 776 Buffer(s)

i expected problems when changing the resolution or switching to fullscreen would cause this error, so i grepped through the files to find the resolution-settings - without success. trying to start the game again to change the setting kept me sitting in front of the initialization-screen without progress and giving me the same XIO-error when closing the application.
moving away the client.cfg caused the game not to find its fonts anymore, because it seems to expect them in /usr/local/share/ryzom/data.
finally, i changed the fullscreen-setting in client_default.cfg and moved back the client.cfg and after several client-restarts, it got me to the login-screen again, now the resolution-setting said "windowed", i switched it to 800x600 and back again but after entering my details and clicking "Connect", i was sitting at the "Connecting"-screen forever.
i have attached client.log, error.log and log.log of this last session.

i am using OSS4 for sound, not ALSA! (disabling sound in client_default.cfg made no difference, however, only removed the AL-lib-messages when closing the application)
