Ah, I had forgotten about the Q3 source. But Doom 3? I have not heard that you can run Doom 3 natively. Last I heard, from id themselves, they *might* do it in the distant future. I'm betting they will - they have a good track record of doing so with quake 1-3 as well as doom1 and 2. --

I have Doom 3 installed in /var/chroot/sid-ia32, as well as the nvidia-glx and necessary alsa packages. Other GL-based games perform terrificly. Doom 3, however, has this annoying clicking sound throughout the game. It beings when the game is launched and does not stop until /quit. Is

Hmm, so what am I missing? What win32 app should I try for testing, that you others have gotten to run and is not too huge (so I have a defined test result)? I'm not really sure what you're missing. Try the minesweeper and solitaire apps that come with wine, for a start.

Well, I think I got it: The problem was XFS. storing the win32 binary on a FAT partition, it at least starts.. That seems very weird, but I've had a lot of weird problems with XFS lately...

You might have to install the full 32-bit NVidia driver package inside your chroot. At least, this is what I did.

Re: Recommendations for cheap Linux-compatible Opteron mobo

For dual opteron, Tyan boards (esp S2881 and 2) aren't cheap, but they're nice. (Tyan even _supports_ LinuxBios on them, and has an lm_sensors config you can download.) The older Tyan opteron boards are very cheap now - I have the S2875 ANRF, and I have not a single complaint.

The FX5200 may just not be up for it. Afaik, FX5200 is basically a GF4MX440 upgraded to support DX9 features. A good GF3 card could quite possibly outperform your FX5200. No it is truly a GeForce FX chip, but a very minimal one. Same basic design as the 5600/5700 supposedly (4 pipelines)

I am mostly looking at an ATI 9200 card, but I would not mind about hearing experiences with 9600 series or nVidias 5200/5900XT series. I have an nvidia fx 5600, and it works great with nvidia's binary drivers. No experience with the free nv driver.
