The Linux version runs just fine with Linux emulation on FreeBSD 2.2.5-R,
in text mode at least. I've never tried graphical as the machine is a
dedicated server.

What you download from idsoftware is everything except for the 175MB pak
file. That you must pull off the CD.

As long as there are Linux versions of the mod...you need the "gamei386.so"
file, since that's the Linux quake2's version of "gamex86.dll"
