Few things first that I think that matter a lot.

I use Xubuntu 20.04 on old MacbookPro from 2008.
I cannot install Nvidia's drivers because system doesn't boot up afterwards or I'm stupid and don't know how to get it to work.

I have downloaded and installed UrT from SnapStore, but it just gives me blank screen for milisecond and kills the game.
Because I couldn't find a way to find any logs (I just don't know where to look) I downloaded the .ZIP from here.
I made executable files working and ran them both through terminal to get any output of potential error and if I read this correctly it's due graphics.
This is what terminal showed me when I tried either executable.

Despite knowing that Nvidia driver will make issues with even booting OS I installed it.

Eventually I managed to reach terminal instead of GUI which don't even initize. Wasn't easy, but whatever.
For fun I tried to start the game through that terminal and I broke it with that attempt.

I'm certain error output is similar.

I already managed to revert to Nouvetau driver to make system usable again though.

So I'm pretty much answering my own issue now.
The issue is the Nouvetau driver here and for me there's no workaround.

Thanks for nothing.
Hopefully anyone else experiencing same driver issue will learn to not try start the game on Nouvetau.

game and FS engine is outdated. try newer client like m9 until then try Open q3config.cfg with a texteditor, look for 'r_mode=8' switch to another number like 4 or something to get lower resoultion

I don't even have such file anywhere. I tried creating one and put it.

It even says it couldn't exec files q3config and autoexec in log.

I tried this m9 and it finally started... Damn.

Since I wasn't following the game for 5 years, devs abandoned it or something?

Ehhhhhh.... Game maybe started, but freezes whole computer when trying to load data to join the game.
At first it got stuck at very beginning, after reboot I lowered settings to lowest possible so it loaded more and before loading last assets it got stuck.
I think it ran out of resources. -_-
Macintoshes... More like Crapintosh. :|

That worked. Thanks.
I could even bumped the graphics up a bit, merely for better image clarity. Still getting fps dips on bigger maps. Still better than 5y ago when I had PPC Mac and Turnpike gave me unstable 25 fps :D
