Has anyone successfully run Linux SQUAKE or Linux XQUAKE on FreeBSD?
I've installed the Linux compat files but I still get errors....if you
could help I would be grateful...Thanks.

BTW, has anyone thought of asking David Zoid or one of those Quake guys
to port Quake to freeBSD? A really good platform game like quake on
freeBSD would be fantastic. It wouldn't be just a workstation or server,
huh? I mean come on! Even neXtstep has quake and it has less users then
freebsd...
