We now have someone officially in charge of quake/quakeworld unix ports:
                                            ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dave 'Zoid' Kirsch.
zoid@threewave.com
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Direct any correspondance about the linux ports of quake to him.  If any other unix vendors would like to have quake ported to their environments, set up an equipment loan with him. 

This is a volenteer position, so don't give him a hard time.

A preliminary release of glquake and the 3dfx driver has been put on our ftp site in the idstuff/unsup directory.
one hour later...
3dfx gave me a new vxd for glquake that fixes crashing problems on some pentium pro systems.  glquake1.zip now contains the current file.


So Jordan, how 'bout it? Do you want to chase him up? The shareware version 
would be a great thing to be able to ship on the 2.2 CD.....
