[ut2004] Can't run client in linux

[Derek W.]

Sorry, I shouldn't have assumed that those were the standard paths, as I 
am running an Debian install from Knoppix.  But, putting those links in 
UT2004's System directory are providing links to the OpenGL libraries.  
You should have the latest Mesa drivers.  And sorry, I am not familiar 
with Mandrake.  Maybe someone else can chime in?
