The installed version was something like libstdc++.so.3 and the program needed something like libstdc++.so.9. Since I installed linux_base-rh-9, they now run, though UT2004 has problems in-game. Before I upgraded linux_base, it didn't even start. Also, linux-XFree86-libs isn't needed for linux_base-7, there already part of it, but they seperated it out for rh-9 I guess. And UT2004 runs just fine in Linux with my GeForce4 MX440 and since Doom 3 runs pretty good in both linux and freebsd with my geforce 4, I'd say the nvidia drivers are probably pretty good. > > Jorn > > > > > > > > > -- > > > I sense much NT in you. > > > NT leads to Bluescreen. > > > Bluescreen leads to downtime. > > > Downtime leads to suffering. > > > NT is the path to the darkside. > > > Powerful Unix is. > > > > > > Public Key: ftp://ftp.tallye.com/pub/lorenl_pubkey.asc > > > Fingerprint: B3B9 D669 69C9 09EC 1BCD 835A FAF3 7A46 E4A3 280C > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > > > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > > > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > > > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd. > org" > > > > -- > > I sense much NT in you. > > NT leads to Bluescreen. > > Bluescreen leads to downtime. > > Downtime leads to suffering. > > NT is the path to the darkside. > > Powerful Unix is. > > > > Public Key: ftp://ftp.tallye.com/pub/lorenl_pubkey.asc > > Fingerprint: B3B9 D669 69C9 09EC 1BCD 835A FAF3 7A46 E4A3 280C > > > > _______________________________________________ > > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- I sense much NT in you. NT leads to Bluescreen. Bluescreen leads to downtime. Downtime leads to suffering. NT is the path to the darkside. Powerful Unix is.
