doom 3 has just been made available for linux :-)
http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/doom/
since doom3 uses opengl instead of directx its possible to play doom with very little changes under linux. unfortuently no 5.1 surround sound :-(
there is also no need to actually copy the pak00 files from the cds. i just linked symlinked them from the windows install and it works fine.
