I couldn't get glquake to work... it prints out some of the usual
startup messages, but then crashes with an error (I'll get it when I'm
at the office next, where I have it installed). The annoying thing is
that the console keyboard map is completely randomized afterwards. I
can't switch consoles or ctrl-alt-del reboot. It's either the reset
switch, or ssh in from another machine on the LAN to reboot. This was
on 3.0-971215. I'm going to try a more up-to-date -current.

I assume this should be ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/idgames/idstuff/... ?

Probably better to use /usr/local/quake-devel ...

There was another problem in there somewhere, but I don't have my
notes with me from when I followed these instructions to get glquake
working.
