I've been thinking about this, and I'm planning in writing a small bash script which uses zenity which can be used as wrapper around 3d games, this script will then first check for dri, and if that isn't available pop up a note (using zenity) saying that 3D hardware accel is needed (with explanation about no open source drivers, etc.) and then exit.

Sounds good for the short-term alteast. I don't know if we need a "proper" app that uses libnotify instead. Notifications on the system tray are much better than dialog boxes IMO.

I would say that we would want to have the second live client, that would need someone to push the submitter of it, he is working on it but mostely doing upstream work. Alternatively we could suggest comaintaining to him and then one of us could get the packages through review, while he concentrates on improving it upstream.

Ok. Do you want to followup within the package review at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233946. I got interested enough to build this package locally and run it. It sort of connected once and has been continuously crashing everytime after that.

The upstream binary is more recent and more stable but I haven't managed to connect in that either which might be a network firewall block which I don't administrate. Upstream stills call the Linux client "alpha" so I am not too sure about pushing that in.
