Hi there
I've been trying to get Quake to run on my Lubuntu system using the darkplaces-linux-686-glx method. However i keep getting mixed results.
First the how to guide i'm following says that i can type "Games/quake$ darkplaces-linux-686-glx" into the terminal and it will run. But this is actually what i get.
"Games/quake$ darkplaces-linux-686-glx
darkplaces-linux-686-glx: command not found"
If i go the gui route, i'm asked it i want to execute the file or execute in terminal. The latter doesn't nothing. But selecting the first actually will try loading Quake.
I thought i'd got it working at one point, i was actually playing quake. However on reboot it tried getting back in to the game and Darkplaces proceeded to tell me i had files missing. I'll quit out of darkplaces, mess around trying to boot via terminal ect..and then i try just executing the icon and suddenly i'm in the game, it's found all the files it needs.
Does anyone have a clue what is going on?
