Re: Quake 3 on a Fedora 2 not working ok

It's an easy one : you must have some libraries left corresponding to
the mesa driver (the "nv" driver).
I'm sending you a script that should check out your config for the
nvidia driver. You have to create a symbolic link from Xorg.conf to
XF86Config before running it (it was designed for previous releases).
Hopefully the script should indicate you where are the old mesa
libraries : remove them and everything should work ok. 
If you're in doubt remove them anyway and rerun the nvidia installer...
(which I would rerun anyway).
If you do not exactly want to run an unknown script (can't blame you) : 
> ldconfig -v | grep libGL | grep -v libGLU
on the command line (as root)
Here, it is :

[root@Titanic root]# ldconfig -v | grep libGL | grep -v libGLU
        libGLw.so.1 -> libGLw.so.1.0
        libGL.so.1 -> libGL.so.1.0.6106
        libGLcore.so.1 -> libGLcore.so.1.0.6106

In your case you should see conflicting libraries (for GL or GLcore), to
remove them :
> locate <name of the library>
and once you have the full path :
> rm <full_path/name_of_the_library>
And 3 D rendering in quake should now be ok.
