I tried to fire up the site in Fennec (running nightly build from today) and it promptly crashed the browser when I clicked on "Play Now for Free". I never got a chance to install the plugin

Thank you for trying.
Sounds like it might be close though, especially if you were able to successfully install/load the plugin

I agree that it may be close enough. I hope someone can help us by taking a look or using their linux expertise to come up with a solution.

Quake Live requires a binary plug-in to run. I'm not sure if they offer an ARM plug-in. Just a x86 plugin as far as I know.
You're better off installing ioquake3 and Quake 3 data files.

While a cool idea, I can't imagine how this would be playable

I thought Quake3 was opensourced, why aren't the data files in the repo?
Anyways, this thread is not the place to complain about ioquake3's shortcomings. Quake Live on the N900 would be a lot simpler for about 80% of the users out there.

The Quake Live plugin installs on the n900 but the page does not load past the configuration page.
Does anyone know anything about the possibility of playing Quake Live on our n900s? Why wont it load even with the plugin installed? I don't know anything from the technical side of this.
Any ideas on how to get this to work? I think it would be a great addition to the n900s arsenal and a great attention grabber. Maybe it will work with Firefox mobile.
