the nvidia driver use 'nvidia' as their driver
get 7676 from http://people.debian.org/~rdonald
youll have to build them entirely from source debs
(no dramas). also go get teh patches from the nvidia
forums and apply them to the nv folder before you
build the nvidia-kernel-modules
youll need too apply then with
patch -p1 patch.txt (to drop a level or directories)
and then re tar them into nvidia-kernel-source.tar.gz
(as module-assistant will untar it again)
you can build q3a from source (worth it imo) and it
will generate x86_64 binaries
however
im still looking for someone to produce an
'ldd ut2004-bin' for me please so i cant see what
versions are used. someone who gets ut to run please!!

too, google amd64 debian nvidia.
Will do.
Does running ut2004 produce anything in the terminal window?
You mean from an "ALT-F# terminal/console. I have not tried. I've always had
to run these sort of things from x-windows. Running from a terminal would be
best I suspect, if the game supports it I will run it from there and see what
happens.
Are you trying to run ut2004 in 32 bit mode or 64 bit?
Originally I just ran it from the desktop icon that was created (if I remember
correctly). I never knew there was a 64bit version. I don't have a chroot
here but I do have ia32 libs installed so I do get some 32 bit apps to run.
If there is a 64 bit version I would run that, but if not I'd have to run the
32 bit if I can get compatibility.

What errors are you getting?
After I installed the latest update it stopped working. The window would
show
up on the taskbar with a spinning hourglas for about 15 seconds and then
just
went away. I'm not sure what was wrong.
Make sure your version of the nvidia modules matches your versoin of the
nvidia-glx.
OK, I'm going to try and install now. Do these nvidia modules work with
the
"nv" driver I am using now, or do I need to get/build a new "nvidia"
driver
for the xorg config?
I had to link the openal library to use the 64bit system library.
I will have to do that too I think, how would I do that?

What problems are you having? ut2004 runs fine in my amd64 debian
sid and
ubuntu amd64. Running 64bit.
This amd64 box is new to me, so I have to get used to the way it wants
to
play. I have run quake3 with linux (32bit) before, it ran wonderfully
but
I
had no sound. Q3 just isn't the same without BANG BANG! I have never
tried it
since.
I have had UT2004 running with debian amd64. It ran fine, sound and
video. But
when I upgraded to the latest linux version (ut2004) it stopped
working,
I don't know why. I had the nvidia drivers installed from the nvidia
site
since
I couldn't get them installed the debian way. I'm going to try again
with
testing and see if I can do it the debian way so future upgrades won't
be
a
problem.
There is nobody in my neck of the woods I can ask about setting this
stuff up
under linux, so I mostly stumble around in the dark and try to scan
these
groups for info on getting them up and running.
If It could be done I would like to have UT (the classic version, had
it
running nicely under 32bit linux), UT2K3/4 and Quake 3 running here on
my
debian amd-64 box.

Please let us all know when you get it working, as I miss these as
well on my 64studio (yeah I know I should be making music, not
playin'
games!!)

is anyone out there running ut2004 x86_64

im pulling my hair out hear
I have in the past. I don't have the nvidia drivers installed at
the
moment. I can't get them installed for some reason on stable. I'm
running testing at the moment so I am going to give installing
them the
debian way again when I get a chance. Last time I installed the
drivers
from the nvidia site and did have it working, as long as I didn't
upgrade (ut2004) to the latest upgrade.
I must say it worked a real charm. I really enjoy UT and quake 3
and
have missed them since switching to linux. I'm going to have to
have
a good sit down with debian and see if I can get these things
going here.
Well, that's just my experience.. :)
