Whenever the Linux Launcher updates itself on my Debian unstable box, it restarts itself but forgets my settings. If I log in again, the "default" settings are overwritten. If I close the launcher and restart it, everything's fine again. Not a big deal once I figured it out. I also have switched from using the "default" settings to a copy named "custom", which seems to ensure that if the Launcher wipes the default settings I'm still OK.

(There were also some reauthentication issues with Ascension this morning for both of my accounts, but after some restarting and reconfiguring everything seems sorted. No idea whether this is Linux-related, so I won't post a bug report.)

Please file a bug report, attaching the launcher logs. Just make sure to mention this is on Linux, it'll get routed to me and I'll take a look.

Be patient, though, I can't give Linux issues priority over other issues - I'd still like the report so I have the info and have a chance at fixing it.

I don't have saved launcher logs, so I'll wait for the next launcher update and file a report when it happens again. Thanks for the reply!
