 Finally, make sure you have $__GL_SINGLE_THREADED set to 1 or Quake

RtCW is single-threaded as far as I know. The admin of one of the
server (Charter) once said that on their dual-CPU server that one
CPU is always at 100%, and the other is idling.

Remeber that RtCW was a Windows games first, and how good is Windows
with threading? (Especially the Win9x series.)

That ususally gets run at boot if the linux_enable=YES is set in
/etc/rc.conf.  Since the installer adds this option it would make sense to
have the installer run ldconfig as well.  I'll send a patch off to NVIDIA.

you should probably try this one:
/usr/compat/linux/sbin/ldconfig -m /usr/compat/linux/usr/lib

or something like that

One more thing: I always have to copy the openGL libraries into Quake's
