fett101 hasn't really posted anything of immense value, but neither do i really! lots of people don't.

Zombie90210 however deliberately turns perfectly good threads into the same old mudslinging contest that many of us have had with him a hundred times before.

A gay joke. Funny.

And there's not a huge amount of valuable information here to begin with.

if you think this site is devoid of info or useful information, (and you are sorely wrong) then why don't you clear off?

LOL, this is some funny shit!

Tell me why I can't run Quake III on Mandrake 8.0

The install went fine but when i go to play it just does nothing. I click on the Icon and nothing.

At least Microsoft would give me an error message.

Bah You sah. Microsoft sucks Ass. My question to you is "if Microsofts spyware is so good how come they have not called me and asked me to pay for all the software I have borrowed from them over the last 6 years?"

Also I'm not a young kid. I'm an old one. 32 years to be exact. I don't have the time for games that I did 2 years ago but I still play every now and then and it's nice to have an OS that they will run on :)

I can't tell you why it doesn't work for you. I know it works for me. Did you try running it from the command line where you will be able to see any error messages produced?
Someone please remove this account. Thanks...

You might also right-click on the icon, select "properties", and make sure there are no typos or anything like that in the execute command.  I installed Trillian under wine once and was baffled as to why it wouldn't work.  I checked the properties of the Trillian icon and I found that there were typos in the command line function.  I simply fixed the typos and the next time I clicked on the icon, it ran just fine.

i just started messing with linux about 4 weeks ago and i love it but i dont want to switch to linux becasue of all my games but im not sure if ur aware yet that there is hope. there is a program now called candence i think its called that or something similar that allows you to play all windows games on linux boxes the only thing is right now it will cost $5 a month for it.

Voted "Not Enough Calum."

Besides, you could probably get better gaming coverage by Cedega (www.transgaming.com) or the developmental variant WineX (http://sourceforge.net/projects/winex).  

Good luck in your endeavours.  :cool:

Someone kill this thread.  It's just a bunch of flaming.

Yo! Linux Community! Treat the others nice! The more Linux users there are, the more development there's gonna be! And they won't join us if they hate us, and they will hate us if we tell'em to piss off, won't they?

Not until recently was GNU/Linux accessible to mortals like me, and most of us haven't yet got used to the fact. As soon as they try, they'll find out which OS rulez. It does usually take getting really pissed with M$, though. I was, when I switched.

And incidentally, I am in favor of playing games on PCs rather than consoles, though I do not really support the gaming community/industry. But then again, if they want to play, they can play. And many people don't want to switch to Linux because they want to play games. And until recently, that was one of the reasons why I still kept Windows 98 (never payed for it, don't worry) on my drive. Soon gonna get rid of the useless shite.
