Yes, I picked up the linux Quake 4 iso via torrent, whereupon I got a License key (which we linux users usually have to get from an XP purchased Instruction Book) [that didn't work] and all the pk4 files (which we linux gamers usually have to copy from the windows XP CD/DVDs.  

I used the license key from a used game I purchased at a local Bookmans, and the pk4 files (since my disks had corruption) and got it running happily with my nVidia card.  

It's really nice, especially in server mode.  The best parts of Quake are the cheat codes that allow you to dink around without really getting killed all the time.

I payed it all the way through a few years ago when it was new, but I don't think i even have it currently installed.  I was thinking about it though since it really did enjoy that one and it's been long enough that it would be like player a whole new game.

The most recent game that I purchased was Alice: Madness Returns, but it's a windows game.  The only reason I got it was that people were claiming that it ran well under wine, but so far I've had no luck at all.  So I won't be playing that one until wine does run it.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
