Counter-Strike: Global Offensive Starts Rolling Out To Linux Users

Yet another reason to use the nvidia blob

I'm almost certain you don't have a choice (yet) when gaming with NVIDIA.

On Arch you have to delete a couple of libraries from the game to get it to run...

Counter-Strike Global Offensive/bin/libstdc++.so.6
Counter-Strike Global Offensive/bin/libgcc_s.so.1

No sound, the guns in the inventory look weird, and it crashes loading maps with an Segmentation Fault.

This on Arch running on AMD HD5770 Mesa driver.

No need to delete anything, and it could be harmful to do so. Reanme the files or do this instead:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/3381

LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib32/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/lib32/libgcc_s.so.1" ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/run.sh steam

This is one of the more exciting Linux-related news lately. This game has been waited for a long time.

There aren't even hats. What's to get excited about?

Thats a good point

Mouse is totally screwed up though. Sensitivity is all messed up, and raw input doesn't seem to do anything.

Raw input is an Windows API to workaround bad Windows mouse input, ofcourse it would do nothing in Linux and there is no need for it here.

Er, no. It's not a Windows API. Getting the mouse input from X.Org instead of reading from the input device directly is bad, since X.Org will be applying acceleration, which destroys FPS games.

Right now, one of the reasons the game is unplayable for me, is because of the mouse.

Sell my copy

Hi
could I sell my copy? I mean it works fine but I was expecting some story playing and not silly arena combat.
Thanks

Yes, put it in a zip and upload it somewhere and then sell the URL on ebay.
