| Linux gaming! I've installed the Nvidia graphics drivers and RTCW: Enemy territory. it was pretty easy to get it up and running. amazingly, ET runs flawlessly I can't tell much about the performance, with my SD memory and a quadro2 MXR I'm getting sometimes under 20FPS in outside locations with low~medium detail and a resolution of 800*600 not bad at all... |

| Most opengl capable games (ut-clones, quake-clones) run flawlessly under linux. In gentoo, it's extremely easy to install such games. $emerge ut2003-demo $/opt/ut2003-demo/ut2003-demo et viola : ) Ati drivers are pure crap though, visual quality of my R9800 Pro is much lower than my GF2 Pro. : /
