Some more information would be good here.. Things like what video card? Chipset?
Driver version for your particular video card?
Also are you sure that OpenGL is working correctly in the first place? You can
try running something simple like `glxgears` or `glxinfo` and that should tell
you whether OpenGL is working or not. If not then you have found your problem.

You're lucky. Everytime I try to get on a server with a custom map it takes
like *20hrs* to download so I give up. This is with 1.5mbit cable. There is
a ut2003 bug database "https://bugzilla.icculus.org"; which could probably
answer your question better. They also have a mailing list just for ut2003.
