I hope u can help me, i only want to play this game on linux :/

The problem here is that you don't have the latest drivers from the manufacturer of you video card. Go to the website of the company that manufacturers your video card, and download the linux drivers. Make sure you have you kernel sources installed!

Could also be handy to know what video hardware you have.

I have a Geforce 3 Ti.

I tryed to install the aktually driver but linux allways said that i have no precompiled Kernel or so.

I had searched for themes like that, but i allways found answers like "Use you to load latest updates".

I had used you and installed all updates ect. but the errormessage is still there.

Can someone help me or give me a link where i can read a how to nvidia kernel.

thx

Are you sure you have the kernel sources installed and a symlink from /usr/src/linux pointing to them? I think this is what is causing your problem.

I had the same problem using a GeForce2, but, that was after the NVidia update. I am using SuSe as well so hopefully you can try some of the following.
run lsmod and see what modules you have
I am running an ATI 9600 so bear with me if i get this wrong.
If NVidia's drivers are using the internal agpgart module or even external (if NVidia's still doin that) it should show up in the module list as well as whatever module (ATI is fglrx) is running the card. If those are not present, try "$ insmod agpgart" and "$ insmod (whatever nvidia module is)" to get em started. It may be that you have not loaded them or may have (problem with ATI drivers) loaded them in the wrong order. You can edit /init.d/boot.local and add "/sbin/insmod agpgart" or whichever you're missing to load it on startup.
The error about display 0,0 is simply a configuration, usually set in (for ATI fglrxconfig) NVidia's config...whatever it runs when you're installing the driver, or else can be set in XF86Config. Make sure xhost is running X on display 0, that could be causing a device/display not found.

I have AA installed and running in suse 9, however I can't connect to any servers. When I go to the personal jacket, it always times out. I have a p4 2.5 nvidia ti 4600, could some1 tell me what i'm doing wrong?

Are you running a firewall? If so, check the configuration and make sure that there isn't anytihng blocking you from connecting to the servers.

Speaking of FWs does AA uses the same ports as any other UT game (7777)?

UDP
1716 for the game
1717 for the gamequery
1718 for master server query
8777 for standard UT query
27900 for GameSpy
TCP
20045 for Auth server
