Ya, having the error would be handy. Check out the Readme file, it has an FAQ with some common problems. First of all make sure your Nvidia drivers are working. UT2003 is optimized for Nvidia cards, so if it is working then you should not be having issues with the card. If the nvidia kernel module is not compiled for your kernel then it should not work at all. If it is working you should see the nvidia splash screen when X starts up. You can also get more info under /proc/driver/nvidia. If you follow the nvidia readme you should be able to get it working nicely.
