Enemy Territory will not work.

I just loaded Enemy Territory. I know I've got my nvidia drivers installed correctly, however when I go to start the game the screen goes black and then I see the graphical login screen it's almost like it's crashing the xserver and then the xserver restarts any ideas?

Is your sound working correctly? I just installed Enemy Territory and I installed the ATI drivers and my sound wasnt working so when I tried to play it would always mess up. I don't know see if that does the trick

well I have no sound for I don't know how to set my sound card up!

But I don't see why that would have any effect on the game as a whole.

Did u check the x server log??? look around in the log files /var/log/ or actually i think its the xfree86 log or something like that.

It probably is your sound then. Enemy Territory *requires* you to have sound. It's listed as a requirement .. Sometimes, they're not lying about that you know?

Why are you having trouble with sound?

I don't think I have sound installed. when I looked through the package list I have installed the alsa stuff is there. However I have no sound not even from GAIM.
