Quake 4 trouble

Hello, Quake 4 won't start:

I am running Quake4-smp, with quake4 enabled to use both of cpu's core, set to ultra high quality, full antialiasing and the resolution to 1680x1050 16:10.

Any who knows whats wrong?

Re: Quake 4 trouble

Check libGL.so.1, e.g.:

$ find /usr/lib -name libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24 2008-04-10 22:02 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 -> /usr/lib/libGL.so.173.08

$ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libGL.so.173.08
/usr/lib/libGL.so.173.08 is owned by nvidia-utils 173.08-1
