It installs fine. When I try to run the game it gives me an error in the command line about my sound card as does Knoppix. It is Creative Audigy LS and I am guessing it has no Linux drivers. I did try it in Fedora Core 1 and it was just one big glitch. Thanks for your help ahead of time.


P.S.: I will run the game to get the exact error.

Xlib: extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
open /dev/[sound/]dsp: No such device
Either GL_EXT_bgra or glDrawRangeElements not supported- bailing out.

That is the exact error did not see the two other lines before.

The first line pertains about your video driver using mesa I believe. Type glxinfo and see what you have:

example:
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: RADEON 8500 DDR Generic
OpenGL version string: 1.3 (X4.3.0-3.7.6)


The second line, about your sound error. Type "killall artsd" and run esd.

What I got about the graphics card.

Sorry about replying so late things have been busy.

I installed UT2k4 2 days ago, but i just can't get it to run:S i somewhere saw a hint that if you run it from the shell, you'd see the exact error. But it doesn't give any error at all:S It show the splash screen and then drops back out and the only "error" which is given are a couple of white lines! Does any one have an idea what to do?

ungerade, you need to get proper drivers for your graphics card. what card are you using?

ATI Radeon 9200
