Are there any Quake 4 players out there? The game runs native in Linux very well. It also utilizes the multicore processors. I'm a big FPS gamer. Some of the other games in Linux I have are Doom 3, Sauerbraten, Nexuiz, Open Arena, Postal 2, Legends, Enemy Territory, Alien Arena 2007, Tremenulous, Assault Cube, Warsow, World of Padman, Urban Terror, and Unreal Tournament 2004. I also have hamachi and gHamachi for games. Hit me up if you'd like to game.

Nothing wrong with them at all!  I just like the "feel" of the original, 
without all of the souped up graphics and things.  Plus, most of the newer 
clients don't interface with the vanilla client, you have to be using the 
new client on all ends to play between people.  I did try Q1 in a VMWare 
Win98 install, and it worked OK, but I'd rather get it running a bit more 
natively. :)  (Oh, and yes I've tried it in DOSBox, still a bit too slow 
even on my P4-2.4 tho.)
