I've gotten Unreal Tournament to run. If you don't have a Voodoo card (I have
a TNT2 card), you have a little work ahead of you. Basically you have to
download the latest patch and CVS code for UT and SDL (SDL needs Mesa to
build). Compile and install. Go to http://OpenUT.sourceforge.net/ for more
help. You might also want to check Unreal Tournament.log in the System
directory for errors. If all that is not enough, performance isn't that
great for non-Voodoo cards. I get about 20 frames per second. If you do have a
Voodoo card, try looking at some of the posts on the forum at the OpenUT
web site.
