Include more games, different packages for different installations.
For example, include Quakeforge for different targets (Glide, OpenGL, SDL whatever) so
that people just have to fire it up.
Include descriptions for that ("Install this package if you want to play
quake and you have a voodoo3 3000 graphics adapter")
Non-experienced (even experienced) people have problems to get games
running with their configuration ("hmmm, i have an nvidia card, do i need
mesa or utah-glx or what")
They don't know they have to compile mesa for glide if they have a
voodoo card. They just give up or bother people in irc channels.
They dont want to read 10 faqs on 10 different sites and the site with
the information they need is down.
I know all this from painful experiences.
Even the UnrealTournament kind-of-port could be included.
That would be a great improvement and would be one big difference
to other linux distributions. It's a reason for people to say wow.
There are some nice GPL'ed games.
(just to mention QuakeForge/Heretic/Hexen/Doom and lot's of others)
They all have GL ports so that would be a setup problem for most
people. They are not the newest but not anyone can afford new loki games.
And a playable configurated quake-glx would be nice, would you agree?
No one wants xbill or something (Thats billshit hehe) anymore (imho).
I'll contribute games packages for some targets/configurations,
just have to wait a week or two for more stable versions.
That was it for now
