I doubt there is a full suite that provides all that Raptr provides though.
have been using it for 7 years on linux now... only thing is that you have to manually add the game you want it tracks.
But [Xfire](http://www.xfire.com) isn't native... Unless I'm mistaken, it's only for Microsoft Windows-based operating systems.
I'm looking for something native... If such a thing even exists.
I would have thought that with [SteamOS](http://store.steampowered.com/steamos) just around the corner, someone would already be working on such a solution... But apparently not.
gfire is the best you can get: tracks gamehours and gameservers.
no ingame chat, video broadcasting or similar
Perhaps this will change once [SteamOS](http://store.steampowered.com/steamos) is officially available...
Well that's [coming](http://www.obsproject.com)...
i dont really mind.. gfire is enough for me to keep track of my gamehours that are outside of steam and to be able to chat with friends (i have 2 monitors so i dont really need ingame chat anyway)
obs works but has some small issues for me atm so im still using simplescreenrecorder for the time being.
