Choppy sound with default (non-SDL) client

Hi,

I've heard several reports over quite some time that default (non-SDL)
client executable gives choppy sound on FreeBSD (that is, OSS).  SDL
version (quake2-sdl) works fine.  Is this a known problem?  What might be
the cause (and the fix)?

Quake2 on Kubuntu 11.10

Just finished upgrading to Kubuntu 11.10 (from 10.10 and 11.04) and now 
my Quake2 no longer works in GL modes. Software X11 mode works but 
Software SDL, OpenGL GLX and SDL OpenGL do not. I get a seg fault and 
this output...

Open source mod with no commercial dependencies?

I'm very new to Quake II open source. I first got into it just this month with the Quake II GWT project, which has ported the Quake II engine to run in a browser with no plug-ins under HTML5. It's still a work in progress, but very cool. But there's one hitch: since the Quake II demo resources are commercial, you can't publicly host it anywhere. You have to install it locally, which takes some library set-up and console commands.

I really wish there was a way to host it publicly somewhere, so that anyone with a WebKit nightly build could go there and try it out easily. To do that, what we'd need is a full set of mod resources that have no dependencies on the commercial Quake 2 resources. This means that you could run it with just the Quake II engine open source code, and this open-source mod: no demo resources. That would mean totally different levels, models, textures, and sounds.

Does such a thing exist? I have no idea if all mods are patches to the commercial resources, or if something this standalone exists. Please let me know - it would be very cool to have Quake II running in the browser! Let me know if what I've said makes no sense because of my ignorance of all this,

If you're interested in running it locally on Mac or Linux, I've made some additions to their instructions to make it easier:

Hello.

Uh, no.
icculus.org is a dual opteron machine.

However if you want to make some forums somewhere, I'd suggest
chatbear.com.

Re: IRC Channel

I don't know the real status of the icculus.org machine for the time 
being, but in the past was a really old machine and for more than once 
that I remember that it had problems with, also dont know the 
policies... but if it's needed, I don't mind giving the webspace and 
some traffic to host it in Europe... if that is the case and the leaders 
of the project want it, drop me a line or two.

Re: IRC Channel

I have registered the #icculus.org/quake2 channel on freenode.org now...
please put that channel in autojoin if you enter that net, if you don't
you should, because freenode is the best linux/OSS network out there ;)

would be nice to have a base of people there!
