Edit Reason: Forgot that I was *starting* a thread

I'm informing that I wanted to play the "QBZERK" on Linux. It seems to be strictly for Windows only because it compiles successfully but the executable refuses to start. Tried it just now on dead-duck Fedora 36 MATE on one computer, and on Manjaro KDE on my main 10-year-old laptop. This was all 64-bit and with QB64PE v3.3. I declined trying the "official" QB64.
It gives out an error message starting with "freeglut" then the executable name as was written at the command line, then colon and nothing afterward. Was it supposed to display the reason for the failure?
I picked up the ZIP from the "dot-rip" frozen forum but it had been sitting there in my backups for months.
I was going to post this in the thread about the game tutorials (EDIT: so much that I had to make one edit), to indicate this isn't really a big deal, no pressure requested. I'd play this game for Windows if that was intended, no problem for me.
