BZFlag is a free multiplayer multiplatform 3D tank battle game. The name stands for Battle Zone capture Flag. BZFlag runs on Irix, Linux, *BSD, Windows, Mac OS X and other platforms. It's one of the most popular games ever on Silicon Graphics machines.
The Linux install can use either RPM or DEB formats. To install, use rpm or apt, repectively. Its possible that the following symbolic links may need to be made to get BZFlag to install properly over Mesa:
$ ln -s libMesaGL.so.3 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1
$ ln -s libMesaGLU.so.3 /usr/lib/libGLU.so.1
Also, rpm may require the --nodeps option for some systems (to get around broken dependencies). However, Mesa is absolutely required for DRI systems.
