Hi all,

After reading Eric's post, I re-installed dri and nvidia-driver as soon as I 
got home. The combination seems to have done the trick... ut2004 now works 
just fine with x11/linux-xorg-libs. 

Perhaps a note should be put in ports/UPDATING about this situation? There was 
nothing about recompiling those two when the upgrade went out.

Eric, if you're having problems installing ut2004, I found this thread 
extremely helpful:

Don't forget to download the Megapack: It has the latest patches in it, not to 
mention a lot of nice bonus content. You can get it from 
http://www.beyondunreal.com/main/ut2004/ut2004essential.php

Thanks for your help guys,
DMK
