Step 1) Obtain a legitemate, retail copy of Half-Life Step 2) Obtain all of the necessary CS material Step 3) Obtain a legitemate, retail copy of Return to Castle Wolfenstein Step 4) Make a video of yourself burning the Half-Life CD and send it to Valve along with a letter telling them how evil they are for not supporting Linux. Step 5) Download the Linux client binaries for RTCW and install the game on your system, then proceed to play a multiplayer game that is BETTER than CS[1], made by a company that actually gives a damn about Linux users, and running on an engine written by a guy who has released the vast majority of all of his work under the GPL (John Carmack). Alternatively, forego all aforementioned steps, install pengiun-command, and enjoy a game that isn't burdened by proprietary licenses. :) [1] Ok, ok, so that's inviting a holy war on the scale of the vimacs debate, but I had to use strong language for dramatic effect. :) -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
