Re: unreal tournament 2004 for x86_64 on debian



I installed the nvidia driver using m-a install nvidia ( I think I had the 7474 nvidia-modules installed, make sure nvidia-glx is the same, also install nvidia-glx-ia32 for 32 bit support). Then xorg needs some changes too, google amd64 debian nvidia.

Does running ut2004 produce anything in the terminal window?

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

After I installed the latest update it stopped working. The window would show up on the taskbar with a spinning hourglas for about 15 seconds and then just
went away. I'm not sure what was wrong.

Make sure your version of the nvidia modules matches your versoin of the
nvidia-glx.

OK, I'm going to try and install now. Do these nvidia modules work with the "nv" driver I am using now, or do I need to get/build a new "nvidia" driver
for the xorg config?

I had to link the openal library to use the 64bit system library.

I will have to do that too I think, how would I do that?
