Hi Trevor and all,
I tried it both ways after I moved both of the doom wad files
I have into the /usr/share/games/doom directory.
Here are my results:
[fran@flp fran]$ lxdoom -f /usr/share/games/doom/DOOM.WAD
LxDoom v1.4.0 - By Colin Phipps (see http://lxdoom.linuxgames.com/)
Z_Init : Allocated 6016Kb zone memory
Looking in /usr/share/games/doom
Looking in /home/fran/.lxdoom
Looking in /home/fran
Looking in /home/fran
IWAD not found
[fran@flp fran]$ lxdoom
LxDoom v1.4.0 - By Colin Phipps (see http://lxdoom.linuxgames.com/)
Z_Init : Allocated 6016Kb zone memory
Looking in /usr/share/games/doom
Looking in /home/fran/.lxdoom

IWAD not found
I don't get it. Maybe someone else does.
Thanks for any enlightenment :)
