UT2003 for Linux

I had ordered UnrealĀ® Tournament 2003 from Tux Games a while back, and received it this weekend. The Linux installer is included on the 3rd disc, although if you didn’t read that online, I don’t know how you would know that from the packaging. But it’s a super game. Granted I have a good graphics card (NVidia Geforce200)…and I’m really excited because the audio works! I could never get Quake3 to work because of the stupid mmap audio problem. Evidently, UT2003 uses OpenAl which seems to recognize whether I’m using artsd, or alsa, or whatever, and it just works. Woo-hoo! Off to DeathMatch…
