Re: Quake1/Quake3 on Sarge
I attempted the nVidia driver(6629) before and could not complete it due to
agcc incompatibility with sarge vs what their package was working with(2.95
IIRC)
Suggestion on the Debina links one? I have a Athlon K7 700(686?) running
kernel 2.4.27(full uname -a):
Linux beast 2.4.27-1-386 #1 Fri Sep 3 06:24:46 UTC 2004 i686 GNU/Linux
There are so many down there and as knew as I am to Debian, i would really
hate to hose the current setup.
TIA,
