Tell ya what would be great, is if they offered prebuilt binaries in a loki installer like gltron does. Then people would have a reason to try the non-windows version. I’m just a linux power user, not a programmer.. I hate sourcecode, though I’m glad when sourcecode is available to people who are interested in improving things and have the capacity to do so… Makes a better, safer product in the long run, and it’s the whole community thing I like. If I could I’d offer my self-installing version of linux kingpin with the q2hack patch applied, but unfortunately there’s no way to do so legally.

I might be able to build such an install program for this however, if the binaries were offered to me prebuilt and they tested okay. It’s actually very easy to use… If a shmoo like myself can do it.. donno why more people don’t use it.

If such an installer was available for this then people would have a reason to try the non-windows version and it would probably be easier to debug errors on the different distros too.

My guess is many linux users are like me… like the idea of using linux, like to explore its capabilities, and don’t mind shell programming, but hate wasting time looking at meaningless scrolling by in a text console.
