DOOM3 1.1.1286 Linux Binaries -- 12:55 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

id's Timothee "TTimo" Besset updated his .plan with news that there are new binaries available that include ALSA/multichannel sound support. Here's the word:

No GUI changes were made in order to remain compatible with the first release, you will need to set some cvars on the command line to configure your sound:

set s_driver to best, alsa or oss. (best will just try alsa and fallback to OSS otherwise )
set s_numberOfSpeakers to 2 for stereo, 6 for multichannel sound ( whatever your actual number of speakers may be ).

For instance:
doom3 +set s_driver alsa +set s_numberOfSpeakers 6
will start doom3 using the Alsa sound backend in multichannel mode

I'm helping seed the BitTorrent right now, so get downloading!
