My apologies if this topic has been addressed on this list recently --
I've searched the archives for relevant messages, but haven't been able
to find an answer to my question.

I recently installed the Linux Quake binaries, and have managed to get
'quake.x11' to work with no problems, except for its lack of sound
output. I've gleaned that Quake needs a sound driver with mmap()able DMA
buffer support, but I'm not quite sure how to go about getting such a
driver. I'm running 2.2.6-RELEASE and using the included sound drivers
snd0, sb0, sbxvi0, and sbmidi0. Is there a directory on the FTP site
from which I can download the updated drivers? Anyplace else I might be
able to find them? I'd greatly appreciate any and all advice in this
area.

Also, I've been able to find a Quake binary for FreeBSD (email me if
you'd like the URL), but the author doesn't include any documentation or
hints as to command-line flags, arguments, etc. If anyone has any
experience with this binary or has managed to get it to work with mouse
and sound support, please enlighten me. Again, I'd appreciate any help
you can provide.
