Will do.

You mean from an "ALT-F# terminal/console. I have not tried. I've always had 
to run these sort of things from x-windows. Running from a terminal would be 
best I suspect, if the game supports it I will run it from there and see what 
happens.

> Are you trying to run ut2004 in 32 bit mode or 64 bit?

Originally I just ran it from the desktop icon that was created (if I remember 
correctly). I never knew there was a 64bit version. I don't have a chroot 
here but I do have ia32 libs installed so I do get some 32 bit apps to run. 
If there is a 64 bit version I would run that, but if not I'd have to run the 
32 bit if I can get compatibility.
