That certainly gets things running, but without sound. I think Quake must require bog standard OSS emulation. As I'm using alsa with a multichanel sound card, I might need to get a little deeper into modules.conf settings to get this going. cheers Brian
well fwiw, i use an SBLive! just fine but I believe I had OSS Going at the time. *Current installation isn't worth mentioning, its perfectly fucked ATM, or I'd test it for ya to help out*. Sooooooooooo try OSS & failing that, see the ARTS homepage. I found after searching the mandrake site a mention to its page on issues relating to the Arts sound stuff for gaming.
Sorry i'm not entirely helpful but tis been a while since I've done battle with linux here. We are due for another run & gunn soon methinks. :)
