I'm having a few problems running Doom 3 (linux version). Errors "unable to initialize OpenGL." I have a GeForce 4, and I've been able to play a few games via Wine, so my video drivers should be alright. Doom 3 is the first game I've bought with native linux support, though, and now it won't work #-o Anyway, what should I do about this?
Help is appreciated.

Does the "glxgears" program work? If so, what frame rates does it report?
