C4 Engine Drops Linux Support, Developer Says Linux Is Inferior
14 Jan 2015 at 4:15 am UTC

Quoting: AryvandaarWhile I was doing a check for new kernels in the repo I saw the 319 kernel, and then I forgot what the fuzz was about.

319 kernel, weeee, weeeeee. :woot:
Yes but it was only the 3.19-rc4. So you should not use this Kernel. The latest stable was 3.18.2.

The 3.18.2 i use, too.

Western Digital Green HDD, How To Stop Them Dying On You
13 Jan 2015 at 4:17 pm UTC

Quoting: PublicNuisanceAnyone using these as a main drive are doing it wrong anyway. They are meant as storage drives not as program or OS drives.
Some setups have this Drive Series as main drive. See NAS Servers.
Some people, here in Germany jumps on the Save power train, because the power was not cheap here so the people use these kind of drives.

So i find the information from the Topic starter really important.
Why? I'm hardware/software technician and openSuSE supporter.

I have a green Drive from WD, but it was a USB Drive that's works now intern as Data drive. My primary drive was a ssd.

Thx to the Topic starter.

Best regards

The best is, he tried only Ubuntu. The other thing was wrote here too: if the engine runs in SteamOS, it runs on other Distributions too. The Dev don't not realy knows what Linux is and whats a Distribution is.

No Tux, no Bucks.

You need the Windows Files from Theme Hospital for CorsixTH and Theme Hospital you can get from GOG.

Theme Hospital don't have a Linux Version. So you can't find a Linux Version from Theme Hospital on GOG

Best Regards and Merry Christmas

Airline Tycoon Lands On Linux, Somehow We Didn’t Notice
13 Dec 2014 at 9:19 am UTC

Quoting: thelimeydragonGoing by the forums the game was only put on Steam for Windows in November.

Is this an actual native port? As I would be amazed for such an old game to be ported without using a WINE wrapper.
Yes it is a Native Port

Quoting: HyeronWasn't there a native port done by Runesoft waaaaaay back then? Is it the same or a RE-port? :p
I think it is the Rune Soft Port. On Desura you can get the Rune Soft Port.

Quoting: sakurazukaNice thing is that one of Linux GOG is actually a free game so anyone can try it out.
There are two, actually! Dragonsphere [External Link] and Stargunner [External Link] are both free. Once some ScummVM titles hit, I'm sure we'll see Beneath A Steel Sky, Lure of the Temptress and Teen Agent (also free) being available to Linux users as well.
Why you will see "Beneath A Steel Sky" on GOG?
Its opensource and you can get it on your Distribution for free. I have it over 8 years in my openSuSE resopitories.
Have you ever thought that some people don't want to trawl through their package manager for games?
What is the package management there?
In order to have a clean system?
To install programs and games?
Order to coinciding with resolve the dependencies that need the game or application?

For some GOG Games you need, to resolve the dependencies on 64bit systems, your package management too.

I also said was that the game on the popular Linux distributions available over 8 years.
That is why his statement was untrue, it be not available on Linux.
