Works perfectly except for the screen resolution, not very high but fine enough.

A certain guy with beautiful hair called John Romero, who recently released a new WAD, recommends gzdoom. Either that or prboom will work just fine, though.

Andrew https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Comparison_of_source_ports Personally, I've used games-fps/prboom-plus, which is in the tree. games-fps/doomsday is very much not vanilla, but is also in the tree (and has a GUI and stuff) I've had friends that used Chocolate Doom, but I don't think that's in the tree.
