Make sure you have /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 as a symlink to /usr/lib/GL/libGL.so.1.0.1251.nv_glx and /usr/lib/libGL.so as a symlink to /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 The script /usr/X11R6/bin/switch2nvidia_glx will create the symlinks for you. If it still doesn't work, try running 3Ddiag. It should tell you what you've missed in your installation regards Anders On Saturday 04 August 2001 14:46, Martin Webster wrote:
Has anyone got Quake 3 Arena (win32 + Linux point release) running on SuSE 7.2 with a TNT2? This is how far I've got:
Created directory /usr/local/games/quake3 Created directory /usr/local/games/quake3/baseq3 Copy file "pak0.pk3" from the CD to /usr/local/games/quake3/baseq3 Downloaded and installed the Linux point release (1.17) Put the following into a file and saved it as /usr/local/games/quake3/quake3:
#!/bin/sh # Needed to make symlinks/shortcuts work. cd "/usr/local/games/quake3" quake="./quake3.x86" "$quake" $* exit $?
Created a sym link to the shell script in /usr/bin:
ln -s /usr/local/games/quake3/quake3 /usr/bin/quake3
I'm now getting the following messages after typing quake3:

I've installed the latest NVidia drivers from their site using the YaST online update. Not sure about what to do next - once I get this program on my SuSE box it's goodbye to Bill forever! Help and hints appreciated.
