Linux is holding exactly where we thought it would in the Steam Hardware Survey

It is way too early to judge Steam Machines. Here in Denmark you can buy a Steam Controller and a Steam Link at your local GameStop. Although you have to ask for one, because they are not exhibited anywhere in the shop. Also, most shops are either sold out or have a "limited availability", whatever that means. No actual Steam Machine is available anywhere in the country, as far as I know. So the thing is hardly even launched yet...

I actually demoed a Steam Controller and SteamOS to my colleagues, and the reception was very positive. Especially considering that most of them are Mac users and have an XBox or a PlayStation.

So I am not losing hope just yet.

I am also very interested in this. It should be playable on Windows, but information about Linux performance is very sparse.

Quoting: leillo1975When the map are loaded, I can see nothing (all is black) except the hud and the names of the teammates. If I push Esc I see the map.
I have seen people suggesting you set your locales to C on Steam:

How come I have never came across anyone mentioning this game in any discussions about racing games on Linux? Where can you find this old Linux version?

Unfortunately it does not work on current Debian Testing. Something to do with libc6 and how the game is loading shared libraries. :(
