Problems: vquake: runs and then just stops. No errors, no nothing. xf86quake: Error: Video card bank size (2353152 bytes) too small for this res. I'm guessing that I need to switch X into the resolution I want to use. xquake: Runs in a window, smashed up in the left hand size in a funky color. Can we get some documentation on these? Patrick P.S. I'm running on a 2.2.7-STABLE system (a.out).
