Running quake4 won't work until it's installed. First you need to run the installer, which should be named something like quake4-linux-1.2.1.x86.run. To run it, open a terminal (command line), change to the directory where the .run file is, su to root unless you're going to install it in your home directory or have full write privileges to /usr/local/games, and type
Code:sh quake4-linux-1.2.1.x86.run
The installer should pop up a window to guide you through the rest of the installation. Once that's done, you need to copy the file(s) mentioned in the README. Then you'll be all sett!Stand up and be counted as a Linux user!
