I for one would love a good working console-mode run of Quake (I have a Millenium II vid card, so...).

Main reason; I just can't Quake without using the mouse, which just Doesn't Work (tm) under X11. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Unix Systems Administrator | fullermd@futuresouth.com Specializing in FreeBSD | http://www.over-yonder.net/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet" To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
