ATI commercial driver and software suspend

Hello, I hope this is not too off topic. I bought the retail version of Quake 3 few years ago. But now I want to try it on Linux. Does anybody know if I need to buy a new copy for linux or if I can modify the Q3 Linux Demo somehow ? Thanks in advance, Toan ---
