Hi, I am getting an error after installing Quake 3 (native, with the 1.32b point release).

My arch installation is pretty new, so I may not have the drivers / packages installed yet.  What should I do?

Re: Quake 3 Error

Install the appropriate OpenGL-Driver for your Video-Card.

Re: Quake 3 Error

Error message means that you have disabled "glx" in the xorg.conf. First enable it, then configure hardware driver.
