I'm trying to get quake going on FreeBSD with
varied success.  quake.x11 and xquake both work
fine, cept they're small, and there's no sound.

Is there anyway to get sound?  I;m running 3.0-current
and I have luigi's sound driver. I have an old SB16 sound card.

xf86quake seems better since its supposed to be full screen,
however, I get this error, even in 640x480x8bit color

%./xf86quake

anything I can do?
is there a 320x240 mode supported by XF86331?
I have a STB lightspeed 128, using the SVGA server.

Finally, it seems like squake would be the best, 
but I get another error:

Feb 10 00:32:05 whatever /kernel: Linux-emul(226): ioperm() not
supported
Feb 10 00:32:05 whatever /kernel: pid 226 (squake), uid 0: exited on
signal 10 (core dumped)

I thought I read a while back that someone had worked this out, 
I made squake setuid root, and I ran it as root, ...,

Nevertheless, I'm pretty impressed
at 320x240 I get about 4 fps higher than win95 or NT, 
I have a K5-133, TX motherboard, 32 megs SDRAM, 138 megs swap, etc...

Thanks for your help, 
good luck with quake 2, I'm anxious to get that going too.
