wtf guys, seriously?

No, no, it was a fun bastard not a serious bastard. Australian sense of humour.

I'll say this again... NO.

We're not entitled and we'll get it when Valve sees fit for us to have it.

Anything else is...

1) An infringement of Valve's copyrights.

2) Likely to endanger Linux gaming as a whole.

Drop.
IT.
Now.
Guys.

This would be copyright infringement and you would be banned.

And it would screw the official release of steam for linux... so better stop to mess around with that and wait for the damn thing to be released...

Why should someone do this. You can get the Linux Version from the Vavle servers and follow the instructions on this form. If you're not able to do this, than you should stick with the Windows Version, till the Linux Version is released.

I agree that one should keep the steam hacking for them self. No need to frighten other game developers, by showing linux users is a bunch of hackers :-)

I don't mind if one would hack in steam by them self, and never publish the hacked steam version.

Good thing I emailed the Valve developer of the Linux version with the patches

Haha! Making the case for the open source development process!

Nah, not really. Let's not scare Valve away just yet.

I did actually send him an email with the patches.
