    I'm using linux_base-7.1, and I don't have linux-XFree86-libs installed either
    (Perhaps that's not required since I'm use x.org.) And UT2004 works just fine
    with me. Though the performance is somewhat worse then it was at Windows, but
    that's probably because of the Nvidia drivers. Of course, one should not
    expect too much from an GeForce 4 MX440 :)
