Hi guys,
I regularly play ut2004 on my FreeBSD box. Lately I've run into a problem:
After upgrading from x11/linux-XFree86-libs to x11/linux-xorg-libs (at the
same time that I up'ed to the fc4 linux base). After doing that, ut2004 became
pretty much unplayable. Maps wouldn't render properly, movement was choppy,
the works.
Downgrading from x11/linux-xorg-libs to x11/linux-XFree86-libs solves the
problem.
Very irritating that for whatever reason the game needs the XFree86 libs.
Fortunately switching between the two isn't exactly time consuming.
I just thought that I should mention this to the community at large, hence the
email. Although if someone has an alternative solution I wouldn't mind
hearing about it. :-)
Cheers,
DMK
