"You can get the source for QuakeSpasm, but why? It comes in a handy dandy binary that seems to work just fine on every distro I've tried. So, extract your pak files and stick them into a directory somewhere. Then download and decompress QuakeSpasm then stick it into the same directory. Then execute quakespasm, adjust the options to taste, and immerse yourself in some top flight old school shoot-anything-that-moves action."
