To compile QVM's in Linux, you need the Quake3 Sourcecode to compile 4 binaries from it.. the Q3 sourcode can be fetched from google or here: http://www.idsoftware.com/business/techdownloads/
You also need "dos2unix" or anotherwise known as "fromdos" to modify some files which have DOS encoding in them that need to be changed to Linux style. (sudo apt-get install dos2unix or something like that anyway)
In the "/quake3-1.32b/lcc/src/" directory, run "fromdos" on all the .md files (fromdos *.md) otherwise "rcc" will not compile.
Now to the "/quake3-1.32b/lcc/" directory, need to build 3 targets:
make rcc (once compiled will be in /tmp/ as "rcc", you need to rename it to "q3rcc" and move it somewhere Linux can see it like /usr/bin)
make cpp (once compiled will be in /tmp/ as "cpp", you need to rename it to "q3cpp" and move it somewhere Linux can see it like /usr/bin/)
make lcc (once compiled will be in /tmp/ as "lcc", dont rename it, but move it somewhere Linux can see it like /usr/bin/)
Now to the "/quake3-1.32b/q3asm/" directory, the last target:
make (will be compiled in the same directory, move it somewhere Linux can see it like /usr/bin/)
With these 4 binaries built from the Quake3 source, should be able to now go to each Plugin's directory and type "make qvm"... if it works out you should have a "pluginname.qvm".
