For the record, you do NOT need write permissions on the
dir.  (if for some reason you do, it's a bug.)

The error refers to the fact that quakeforge is an engine
only, and does not include data files (maps and everything
else,) so it must be told where to find them.

Set the path to the pak files correctly in
/etc/quakeforge.conf like :

---------------
// Location of shared data
setrom fs_sharepath "/usr/share/games/quake"
-------------------

(from www.quakeworld.net) Try reinstalling Quake.

Might be a bad gfx.wad in the PAK0.PAK? I haven't had this 
problem yet. (Reply with your system info, and ver. of QF, 
so it'll help the devel's..)
