I just recently installed quake4 on my suse 10.1. When i try loaidng it, a little box appers on the top left screen and dissappears quickly and my mouse is centralised but quake 4 is not initialized.
Basically, quake 4 does not want to start. I installed the latest quake4 .run file and my system harware is: Amd x2 4400, 256mb geforce 7800gt and 2mb ram
At any rate, not a very informative post. Open a terminal, type 'quake4' minus the quotes and then when it fails post the output. Use [code] tags around the output so it doesn't look like crap too.
This is what i get from typing quake4 in terminal as root
Code:
Quake4 Final V1.2.1.2386 Build 2386.0 linux-x86 Apr 28 2006
found interface lo - loopback
found interface wlan0 - 192.168.1.104/255.255.255.0
CPU: AMD CPU with MMX & 3DNow! & SSE & SSE2 & SSE3
