 +====== Quake3 Arena on Linux ======
  
 +{{ q3abox.jpg?130}} This is what I did to get my Linux Version to work with the [[http://www.nvidia.com/linux|nvidia drivers]] on my Debian system. Yes I bought the Linux version of this game back then :-)
 +
 +Install using the setup.sh to ''~/games/quake3''
 +
 +Link NVidia's ''libGL.so'' to the Q3A directory:
 +
 +  $> ln -s /usr/lib/libGL.so ~/games/quake3
 +
 +Maybe you also need to link ''libGLcore.so.1'' into the Q3A directory:
 +  $> ln -s /usr/lib/libGLcore.so.1 ~/games/quake3
 +
 +Put the following in ''~/games/quake3/baseq3/autoexec.cfg''
 +
 +<file>
 +set vm_game 2 
 +set vm_cgame 2 
 +set vm_ui 2 
 +</file>
 +
 +Get the 1.30 point release - don't use newer versions or you can't connect to private servers anymore. Do a google search for [[google>linuxq3apoint-1.30.x86.run]].
 +
 +I used this link: http://www.3ddownloads.com/linuxgames/quake3/linuxq3apoint-1.30.x86.run
 +
 +Edit ''~/games/quake3/quake3'' to use my [[alsa|Alsa with Arts]] setup.
 +
 +<file>
 +cd "$HOME/games/quake3"
 +artsdsp -m ./quake3.x86 $*
 +exit 0
 +</file>
 +
 +run it
 +
 +  $> ~/quake3/quake3
 +
 +**Hint:** have a look at this [[http://ucguides.savagehelp.com/Quake3/AquaQuake3Guide.html|site]]
