Did you copy the q4base dir. from the cds/dvd before you ran the installer?

No, no I did not :(

I am not sure how to do that anyway. At least not graphically.

Then you dont actually have it installed. You need to copy the "q4base" directory (which has all the models,textures and such) from your media then run the installer.

For me I installed Quake to /home/atm/.quake4. Within that .quake4 dir. is the q4base dir. The CD/DVD files would go there then run the installer. You can install as sudo or a user.

Do you have the CD or DVD?

what are the commands to copy them? I tried doing drag and drop but it said I didnt have permissions.

Yeah, I have the CDs :)

From a terminal: gksudo nautilus. Then you can drag and drop. Give THIS FAQ (http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/quake4/) a look also.

Cool, got it running but the sound is all screwed up. Sounds like everything is run through an electronic filter or something.

Open a terminal and enter this command that will solve your sound issue.

quake4 +set s_driver oss
