Hi all, After reading Eric's post, I re-installed dri and nvidia-driver as soon as I got home. The combination seems to have done the trick... ut2004 now works just fine with x11/linux-xorg-libs. Perhaps a note should be put in ports/UPDATING about this situation? There was nothing about recompiling those two when the upgrade went out. Eric, if you're having problems installing ut2004, I found this thread extremely helpful: http://www.bsdforums.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-20854.html Don't forget to download the Megapack: It has the latest patches in it, not to mention a lot of nice bonus content. You can get it from http://www.beyondunreal.com/main/ut2004/ut2004essential.php Thanks for your help guys, DMK -- I can't afford to make any exceptions.
