Valve's Full Linux Push Talked About For February

[blackout23]

Do you know any programs with distro lock? I don't. Most of the stuff I install from Arch User Repositorys comes in *.debs. Still no problem.

Fuck Ubuntu

Canonical and Valve meeting has me pissed. Exclusive Linux distro releases is utterly absurd. Valve better release a cross-distro Linux installer/package that will inclue all dependencies and their games better do the same. The dependencies can only end where actual real unchanging standard APIs/ABIs begin. I'm not supporting efforts to push proprietary Linux. Anyone who cares about freedom should be pushing for cross-distro standards.

Black Mesa Source will be released on September 14

I really need a Source port for Linux.

BTW Free (or Pay What You Want) sountrack is available to download http://www.blackmesasource.com/soundtrack.html

I don't have much hope on unity, it's a bloody mess thanks to compiz.

I'm testing Xubuntu 12.10 and it's much better OS for gaming.

Compiz 0.9.8.0 landed today (Ubuntu 12.10), fixing most performance issues.
