I have also tested the demo version of Rune, and indeed there is lag in the
sound effects. Don't know about Soldier of Fortune, or any others.

As for the downloadable demos, you can get the Quake 3 demo from
ftp://ftp.idsoftware.com/idstuff/quake3/linux/old/linuxq3ademo-1.11-6.x86.gz.sh,
and the Rune demo can be installed through the "Loki Demo Launcher"
(ftp://david.hedbor.org/loki/demos/loki_demos-full-1.0e-x86.run).
