Problem running Quake

J_angel2000 · 04-13-2004, 10:39 AM

Hello everybody.

I have well installed Quake in my SuSE 9.0 with Quake.x11 linux binaries but I can't run it!!

I type: cd /usr/local/games/quake
./quake.x11

It tells me that the directory or file doesn't exist.

What do I do?

Thanks a lot!!

as far as I know the file I execute to run my quake is:

/usr/local/games/quake3/quake3

When you installed quake, it also should have created a quake3 file in your /usr/local/bin

which you could simply call up by running

$ quake3

go try that and let me know if it works please

***update: I just checked my quake and I do not have a quake3.x11 file :P

Thanks for answering RetiredSoldier but I refer to Quake 1 not 3.

:-)

Thanks anyway.

Now that's what you get for staying up too late last night ! ROFL..sorry about that, I just automatically assumed it would be Quake 3 that we're talking about.
