whoa !!!!!!!!!!
I bet there is some option in command mode for
quake without sound ... may be its quake -nosound !!!
why to do all this high funda stuff for it ;) ?
the conf and lsmod and rmmod and insmod and all ??
Thankfully nobody is recompiling kernel to just
put off the sound from quake :)

I'm sorry - I don't know of any workaround, but if you
want to know
how to play quake without sound - here's what I did.
First disable the
alsa sound modules in /etc/conf.modules, by commenting
out all the
lines corresponding to alsa. Then run "lsmod", and
remove all the alsa
sound modules from memory with "rmmod <modulename>".
Now run quake -
it'll run without sound.
But you don't want to do this every time you run
quake, so edit the
baseq2/config.cfg file, find the line `` set snddevice
"/dev/dsp" '',
and change it to `` set snddevice "" ''. Now enable
the alsa sound
modules again in /etc/conf.modules (it'll get loaded
automatically the
next time it is used).
This was the hard way - this is how *I* found out the
parameter to use.
But now since you know, you can just do this:
./quake2 +set snddevice "/dev/null"
