Trouble with Return to Castle Wolfenstein
 

Hi, I installed RtCW from a retail win32 Wolfenstein CD-ROM, and I downloaded wolf-linux-*-full.x86.run setup file and I istalled without problems, then I copy all the below files

mp_pak0.pk3 62641cffd9a8ad0f62cc1cca867d51f8
mp_pak1.pk3 22b972974f499a237c96a2200b0d019e
mp_pak2.pk3 30f29ffa81748a957e0441af8c14cb56
pak0.pk3 ce92b11df889cb0a045762bb5fd7cde5
sp_pak1.pk3 a0d3fe956f85f40c8efd6babe0d09832
sp_pak2.pk3 330b272d5261fe19fcf3c3fbc943c7f3

and when I run it shows up an error:

You don't have the correct OpenGL-providing video drivers for your card installed. If you do have an ATI card as your signature suggests, head on over to www.ati.com and download the latest driver and follow the instructions. If you run into trouble, fret not, there are probably a thousand of threads here dealing with installation of these drivers.
The language.cfg error and other configuration errors are OK, at least not lethal, and should only be temporary once you have saved your settings (if I recall correctly).

One word of warning though: Don't ever run programs as root unless you have to, especially not games. Running as root means increased security issues by the power of ten. I had a special user set up on my gaming server to run Enemy Territory and it worked wonderfully, but you should use your usual user account if you don't run a server.
