                      2: -----------------------------------------------------
                      3: 
                      4: Please see the readme.txt file included for general information about the
                      5: game.  This file contains Solaris specific information.
                      6: 
                      7: Requirements
                      8: ------------
                      9: 
                     10: Solaris x86 2.5.1 or later, Sun Solaris Sparc 2.5.1 or later.
                     11: 
                     12: Installation
                     13: ------------
                     14: 
                     15: To install the Quake2 data files, mount your Quake2 CD and copy
                     16: the directory install/data to the location where you want Quake2.  You
                     17: can also symlink it, but I don't recommend that.  Around 200MB of disk
                     18: space is required for a full installation.
                     19: 
                     20: For example:
                     21:   cp -r /mnt/cdrom/install/data/* /usr/games/quake2
                     22: 
                     23: This binary only runs as a dedicated server and requires no special
                     24: user permissions.
                     25: 
                     26: You can also set dmflags, timelimit, etc. in a config file, like so:
                     27:   set timelimit 20
                     28:   set fraglimit 25
                     29:   set dmflags 532
                     30:   map fact3
                     31: 
                     32: Then exec that config file on load, like so:
                     33: 
                     34:   ./q2ded +exec server.cfg
                     35: 
                     36: If you use a config file, you must put a 'map' command in it or the
                     37: server won't load a map.
                     38: 
                     39: To run a dedicated server in the background, use this;
                     40: 
                     41:        nohup ./q2ded +exec server.cfg &
                     42: 
                     43: A better way is to run Quake2 on a tty via screen.  screen can be found
                     44: at ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/screen-3.7.4.tar.gz.
                     45: 
                     46: -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                     47: 
                     48: Solaris Quake2 is an unsupported product.  Usage of this product is bound by 
                     49: the legal notice found on the distribution Quake2 CDROM.
