Enemy Territory: Quake Wars doesn't start


Hello. I just bought ETQW, and downloaded the latest Linux client (1.4). I installed it, and tried to run the game, with rather limited success. Can anyone help me out with it?

Also, as a side note, while browsing the output, it said that the system qualifies for low quality - what prevents it from going higher up than that?

Code:
darkapostrophe@Liberty:~/.etqw$ ./etqw.x86

Well, i still play wolfenstien:enemy territory and fun to see they use pak4 files instead of pak3 files, anyway.

SDL_SetVideoMode failed: Couldn't find matching GLX visual

This is because you are using a wrong video card driver or a wrong config.

I've got the latest nVidia driver installed, so what might be wrong with the config? Want my xorg.conf?

Is your default color depth set to 24 ?

I'll just paste my xorg.conf, that should answer any related questions.

Code:
# xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

And this is why I avoid using 64-bit OS's! Had a hell of a time getting common applications to work with my CentOS x64. I went back to 32-bit and things "just work".

Does ET:QW run well in Linux? Was thinking of getting it, but I played the demo in Windows Vista and I didn't enjoy it too much. I still like Enemy Territory better.
