From the feedback we got after the 1.32 release, the SMP support as designed in the Quake III Arena technology isn’t so much relevant anymore.

SMP and non-SMP builds: Default quake3 shortcut will spawn a non-SMP build.

Use quake3-smp to launch the SMP version if you want to use it.

use an updated setup binary: run the linux setup once, with the -keep option (this will exand all the files to setup.tmp/) get this updated setup file: replace setup.tmp/setup.data/bin/Linux/x86/setup by the new one cd to setup.tmp/ and run setup.sh -Ĭurrent NVidia drivers don’t officially support glibc 2.3 systems This affects Debian Sid in particular, causing crashes during vid_restart The issue is related to the SMP build depending upon libpthreadsġ.32b has both SMP and non-SMP binary.

find a solution to run the graphical gtk-based setup.

This will cause the text mode setup to segfault.

Text mode install broken on glibc 2.3 (Debian Sid) Current Debian Sid’s glibc package break backwards compatibility with binaries compiled on older glibc and statically linked.

This is Linux client side only and is fully compatible with 1.32 A second issue fixed in this release (R_RemapShaders buffer overflow) would let a malicious server exploit a buffer overflow to execute a shellcode on connecting clients.Ludwig Nussel and Thilo Shulz discovered a vulnerability letting a malicious client download files from a server if auto download is enabled ( sv_allowDownload 1 ).So you may not see protocol change info in the changelog for, say, 1.17 or 1.16n, but I’d guess the table is accurate-ish enough. The protocol version and point release version table below is something I found somewhere random and seemed like useful and mostly accurate info.

Did the work TTimo did through 2002 to 2004 make it into the GPL’ed 1.32b? If so, why was the GPL’ed source still called 1.32b and not 1.32c or something else? So I didn’t list his stuff here–not sure where to put it. The information below was from lots of googling I didn’t use the changelog info in the Q3 GPL source, honestly. Quake3-1.32b/code/unix/LinuxSupport/CHANGES-1.32.txt - 1.32 linux-specific changelog in Q3 GPL source Quake3-1.32b/code/unix/ChangeLog - linux-specific changelog in Q3 GPL source
