@Slash I found ref_soft.so in /opt/quake2/baseq2. I did: # mv /opt/quake2/baseq2/*.so /opt/quake2 and that problem was fixed. Installed the quake2-retexture pack from aur and started playing. Game randomly crashes now. Could be the texture pack.

For some reason it's not building ref_softx.so. It looks like it should if BUILD_X11 is set to "YES"- which it is by default. I tried setting it to "NO" and the binary still complains about it. It might be a 64bit issue. When I was on 32bit, this worked (although that was along time ago). I now have 64bit and I get the same error. If anyone could figure this out, it would be appreciated.

I have the same issue as DarwinSurvivor. I tried using the glx renderer instead, same issue: sdlquake2 +set vid_ref glx Quake 2 -- Version 3.21+r0.16 using /home/wmoxam/.quake2/baseq2/ for writing couldn't exec default.cfg couldn't exec config.cfg Console initialized. ------- sound initialization ------- sound sampling rate: 11025 ------------------------------------ ------- Loading ref_glx.so ------- LoadLibrary("ref_glx.so") failed: No such file or directory ------- Loading ref_softx.so ------- LoadLibrary("ref_softx.so") failed: No such file or directory Refresh failed recursive shutdown Error: Couldn't fall back to software refresh!

Updated with additional changes suggested by swiftgeek.

It's hard to get a real soft render, because EXA/XRender use hardware 3D acceleration to 2D things (much faster than using 2D hw accel if 3D exist...) Today almost entire X server use OpenGL ;)

BTW. Inside my desktop http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/1019/dsc00066vh.jpg ;] If that is not scary... Producer of this power supply (300W) is codegen :D --- @30fps is playable... with godmode - multiplayer needs ideal vsync (60Hz in my case) :D To play @1080p i edited source of vid_so and vid_menu... i don't know how simple is compilation in windows (without sdl etc) And on windows i have lower fps than linux... for example quake4 looks like a slideshow on win xp, but with linux is quite playable (at lowest video settings of course and easy level)
