PrBoom is a version of Doom using the Simple Direct Media layer (SDL) library, which lets it use XFree86, OpenGL, Linux framebuffer console, GGI, SVGALib or even color or monochrome text consoles as display. There is an additional OpenGL renderer as well, which has been disabled for now. To play you need maps, called "WAD." A free version is available in the freedoom project. You can use any other Doom WADs as well.
