My thought on this is that, while the library versions have been bumped, the nvidia drivers for linux emulation are unaffected, hence the working quake3, but libGL for native stuff still refers to libm. Is he just having odd system problems beyond the library version bump? Or am I actually correct in speculating that the nvidia drivers need to be updated to properly support beta7 and future releases? On a final note I have yet to go from beta6 to beta7 in fear that some of my beloved games will stop working ;) - Ryan Freeman
