README for Linux QWCL---------------------Please refer tohttp://www.quakeworld.net/for documentation on the client that is not operating system specific.This README covers all versions of QWCL for Linux:Requirements for SVGALib qwcl:- SVGALib 1.20 or later (/lib/libvga.so.1.2.10)- libc 5.2.18 or later (5.0.9 will not work, /lib/libc.so.5.2.18)- CD-ROM for CDAudio- Soundcard capable of mmap'd buffers.  USSLite 3.5.4 was used to build squake  with.  Works fine on SoundBlaster 16.- SVGALib supported mouse (usually if it works with X, it'll work with  squake).- Kernel 2.0.24 or later  - untested with 2.1 kernels, your mileage may varyRequirements for glqwcl:- 3DFX based card for the GLQuake version, VooDoo, VooDoo Rush or VooDoo2at this writing.  In order to use 3DFX hardware, you must have 3DFX'sGLIDE drivers installed.  RPMs for these drivers are available at:http://glide.xxedgexx.com/3DfxRPMS.html- For the glX version, an OpenGL implementation that includes hardwareglX support.- CD-ROM for CDAudio- Soundcard capable of mmap'd buffers.  USSLite 3.5.4 was used to build squake  with.  Works fine on SoundBlaster 16 and Gravis Ultrasound MAX.- SVGALib compatible mouse for glquake or X11 for glquake.glx- Kernel 2.0.24 or later  - untested with 2.1 kernels, your mileage may varyRequirements for X11 qwcl:- X11R5 later, only tested with XFree86, should work with most X Servers- libc 5.2.18 or later (5.0.9 will not work, /lib/libc.so.5.2.18)  or glibc (libc6) for the glibc version- CD-ROM for CDAudio- Soundcard capable of mmap'd buffers.  USSLite 3.5.4 was used to build squake  with.  Works fine on SoundBlaster 16 and Gravis Ultrasound MAX.- SVGALib supported mouse (usually if it works with X, it'll work with  squake).- Kernel 2.0.24 or later  - untested with 2.1 kernels, your mileage may varySkins Note----------After you get the skin files from ftp.idsoftware.com (currently, qw_skins.zip, qws_9652.zip and qws_9706.zip) and install them inqw/skins, you should run the shell script 'fixskins.sh' that you can find inthe qw/skins directly distributed with this archive.Linux qwcl will always look for lowercase file names first.Additional notes for SVGALib QWCL---------------------------------Linux qwcl supports 320x200x256, the various modeX modes (320x400, 360x400, etc) as well as high res modes if your card is supported by SVGALib.  Use the Quake console command vid_describemodes to list supported modes and the command vid_mode <number> to change modes.Full sound support is included.  The default sound rate is 16-bit stereo,11KHz.  You can change this in the options section below.Mouse works great, but SVGALib may not detect a 3-button mouse properly (itwill only use two buttons).  Check your /etc/libvga.config (or/etc/vga/libvga.config for SlackWare users).Additional notes for glqwcl---------------------------There are three different ways to execute glqwcl:1. The binary "glqwcl" requires Mesa 3-D 2.5 or later installed and compiledwith 3DFX support (fxMesa..() function interface).  It also requiressvgalib 1.3.0 or later for keyboard/mouse input.  This binary is a consoleapplication.  Mesa 3-D requires GLIDE to be installed.2. The shell script "glqwcl.3dfxgl" runs the "glqwcl" binary afterpreloading the lib3dfxgl.so library.  This is a port of 3DFX's Win32OpenGL MCD (Mini Client Driver) to Linux.  It is faster than Mesa 3-Dsince it was written specifically with supporting GLQuake in mind.lib3dfxgl.so requires that GLIDE be installed.3. The binary "glqwcl.glx" is linked against standard OpenGL libraries.It should run on many different hardward OpenGL implementations underLinux and X11.  This binary is an X11 application and must be run underX11.  It will work with Mesa 3-D as a standard glX based OpenGL applications.  If the Mesa 3-D library is compiled with 3DFX support,you can have Mesa 3-D support 3DFX hardware under X11 by setting theenviroment variable "MESA_GLX_FX" to "fullscreen" for fullscreen modeand "window" for windowed mode, eg. "export MESA_GLX_FX=fullscreen" for sh or "setenv MESA_GLX_FX fullscreen" for csh.For glqwcl, you must also have SVGALib or later installed (1.3.0 or laterprefered).  glqwcl uses SVGALib for mouse and keyboard handling.If you have gpm and/or selection running, you will have to terminate thembefore running glqwcl since they will not give up the mouse when glqwclattempts to run.  You can kill gpm by typing 'killall gpm' as root.You must run glqwcl as root or setuid root since it needs to access things such as sound, keyboard, mouse and the 3DFX video.  Future versions may not require root permissions.Additional notes for X11 qwcl-----------------------------This is a windowed version that is generic for X11.  It runs in a windowand can be resized.  You can specify a starting window size with:	-width <width>	-height <height>	-winsize <width> <height>Default is 320x200. It works in 16bit modes, but it's slower (twice as manybytes to copy).No other video modes are supported (just runs windowed).  Mouse is read, butnot "grabbed" by default.  Go to the Options menu and turn on Use Mouse to grabthe mouse and use it in the game (or type "_windowed_mouse 1" at the console).New Command Line Options for Linux Quake-----------------------------------------mem <mb>Specify memory in megabytes to allocate (default is 8MB, which should be finefor most needs).-nostdoutDon't do any output to stdout-mdev <device>Mouse device, default is /dev/mouse-mrate <speed>Mouse baud rate, default is 1200-cddev <device>CD device, default is /dev/cdrom-mode <modenum>Use indicated video mode-nokdbDon't initialize keyboard-sndbits <8 or 16>Set sound bit sample size.  Default is 16 if supported.-sndspeed <speed>Set sound speed.  Usual values are 8000, 11025, 22051 and 44100.Default is 11025.-sndmonoSet mono sound-sndstereoSet stereo sound (default if supported)Installation------------Boot DOS (I know, but you need it to run the Quake install program) andinstall Quake from your Quake CD to a DOS parition.Boot Linux and make a directory for Quake.  Copy everything from the DOS Quakedirectory into it.  i.e.:	(cd /dos/quake; tar cf - .) | (cd ~/quake; tar xf -)Place qwcl into your Quake directory.  You must make it setuid root (sinceQuake access stuff like direct video writes, the raw keyboard mode, CD, etc).Quake will setuid back to the normal user as soon as it opens these files.Make Quake suid root as follows:	chown root qwcl	chmod 4755 qwclRun qwcl.  I don't recommend running it as root, since all the savedconfig.cfg files will be then owned as root.  Use your normal account, unlessyou do everything as root, then your mileage will vary.qwcl may segfault if it tries to initialize your sound card and their isn'tone.  Same with the CDROM.  If it dies, try it with -nosound and/or-nocdaudio.  If you have a sound card it died on and you know it issupported by USSLite (the driver that comes with the Linux kernel), let meknow and I'll take a look at it.It should work with SCSI CDROMs, but is untested.End Notes---------Linux QuakeWorld is *NOT* an officially supported product.  Mail about itwill be deleted.  Do not email id about this product.  If you are havingtechnical difficultly, you can email me, but make sure you have the correctkernel, libc, svgalib and other software versions before you email me./// Dave 'Zoid' Kirschzoid@idsoftware.comOfficial Quake Unix Port AdministratorAcks----Greg Alexander <galexand@sietch.bloomington.in.us> for initial work in SVGALibsupport.Dave Taylor <ddt@crack.com> for basic Linux support.id Software for Quake and making me port it. :)Lots of people on #linux, #quake for testing.
