[S.u.S.E. Linux] Quake in Linux (and Good to see the list again!)
Hi all- I posted this last week, but I guess it was lost with all the problems. --- I've checked out a couple of sites that have linux-related quake material, but I can't find one that lays out the procedure for installing and *running* quake. I've seen some instructions on how to get the data files onto a linux partition and such, but, what would I do then? I've visited the Linux Quake Page at <A HREF="http://captured.com/threewave/linux/index.html"><A HREF="http://captured.com/threewave/linux/index.html</A">http://captured.com/threewave/linux/index.html</A</A>>, but came away even more confused. Any body know where I might find something along the lines of an howto for getting all required files, installing them and running them? --- Thanks a bunch!

Just create a quake directory, cp the id1 dir into that, install whatever linux executables you are going to use (glquake, x11 quake etc) in the quake dir and that's pretty much it. You may need to symlink the id1 dir and the executables to your home dir as well. Then create a qw dir in the quake dir and install the linux qw client. That is pretty much it. If you are playing glquake, you'll need linux gl from the 3dfx website and Mesa (included with SuSE) installed. Compile the mesa source instead of installing the bins. Mark Wagnon wrote:
