w00t! LAN games other than half life will include RTCW (with a Linux
version), UT (with a Linux version), Jedi Knights 2 (via WineX),
and of course FreeCiv, XTux Arena, and anything else anyone brings. I'll
try to have official packages of WineX for people (remember, anyone who
wants to share my subscription to WineX (support, upgrades, etc..), bring
$3 to the meeting. If you just want a package for the night that's cool).

Also, please remember that this is TFUG (the Tucson FREE UNIX Group), not
TLWG (the Tucson Lame Windows Gamers), so lets try to keep the number of
Windows boxes down to a minimum. Half Life and JK 2 both run well under
WineX, and RTCW, UT, and Quake 3 (it someone brings it) have Linux
versions, so there shouldn't be a need for Windows at all. If you're gonna
use Windows, at least have the decency to install Litestep :-)
