[plug] Quake 2 problems

[Clinton Butler]

okay.. anyone got experience with Quake 2 and setting it up under
debian?


I have untared the files by instructions stated on
"http://www.linuxgames.com/quake/Quake-HOWTO-3.html" and this is what
happens.
I did the "ls -L' so that you can see what files I have in the
directory... it says "LoadLibrary("ref_softx.so") failed: File not
found" butit's in the directory.. or do I have to move the file.. or
create a symbolic link elsewhere?

(begin)
[root at excalibur:/usr/local/games/quake2]$ls -L
