thanks for the hint. setting compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.4.2 works. :-) sett=
ings
compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.4.20 let's quake4 crash with the very same error
message when using compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.6.16.

unreal tournament 2004 also runs with compat.linux.osrelease=3D2.4.2.

cheers.

=2E.but this just makes it more obvious that the linuxulator is far from be=
ing
100% compatible to the kernel version 2.6.
