I had the segfault problem too. Check /etc/hosts for invalid
entries, ie hostname not given corrent addr. But my problem was
different. My svgalib was a libc6 version of it, but the quake binary I
had was linked against a libc5 version. I had to install the svgalib1 in
addition to svgalib1g for my debian distro. If you have a different
distro, try
finding the oldlibs, and specifically, the libc5 one. This fixed my
quake and quake2..
