Yea, works great. Where is any list of all add-on of quakeforge over
old quake?

0.2d!

Hmmm, these machines are SGIs with native OpenGL...

I'm not a programmer and I nearly don't know C, so guide me what I should
do/check, OK?

Also on Irix6.3 I had problem because of lack of a couple of *printf
functions in libc. I've got only: fprintf printf sprintf vfprintf vprintf
and vsprintf. Is it possible to not to use this symbols?
For example, ./configure checks for vsnprintf and even if it is not
finding it, this symbol is searched during linking...
<horrible hack>
The workaround is to use libc from 6.5 on 6.3 machines.
</horrible hack>
