Hello Trisquel users,
I am new to this forum
and my favorite game of all time is Doom/Doom II!!!
but i like to know...
...Is doom/doom II free software? Because the doom engine is licensed under
the GNU GPL and the MIT (expat) License as seen in
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_engine
The game itself costs money and the only way i see fit is from steam, which
is laden with Digital 'Restrictions' Management and proprietary software. But
it runs of Trisquel (I'm not endorsing proprietary software by the way)
So is it a free software game? I mean, there are source ports for doom/doom
II and i like to run it on Trisquel. There is a GNU/Linux port of Zandronum.
Also, i tested Trisquel mini on a virtual machine to see if the operating
system as the GNU/Linux distro for me(my current GNU/Linux distro right now
is Debian) and if doom (Zandronum) worked and it ran horribly and slow. The
graphics card is an AMD Radeon so that could be the problem.
