Check the svgalib version. The new one from Hamm (and slink I think) work
properly with the Hamm and Slink versions of Quake2:
quake2 : Version: 3.19a-1
svgalibg1 : Version: 1:1.3.0-0.3
svgalib-bin: Version: 1:1.3.0-0.3
svgalib1 : Version: 1:1.3.0-0.3 <-- from "oldlibs" for squake
(conflicts otherwise)
And check SETUID permissions on /usr/lib/games/quake2/quake2.real:
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root games 342284 Sep 11 08:33 quake2.real
(ignore size diff: thats 3.19a)
