You'll have to load your nvidia 3D driver for X before attempting to run UT in *nix, but it is no big deal. nVidia is kind enough to provide very good linux support and even decent instructions on how to make their 3D drivers work in *nix. If you have any difficulty with that, there are quite a few NGs right here on usenet where you'll find some great help for things like that.... and there are several "old regulars" in this NG that are always kind enough to give advice and instructions ;)
