* Story Chapter One (Early Access Start Content)
* Story Chapter Two (During Early Access)
* Story Chapter Three (For the full release of the game)
So I guess the content in EA is roughly 1/3 of the full game at the moment. The howlongtobeat.com entry [External Link] for the game suggest 5-6 hours in the current state so something like the promised 20 hours for the full game do seem likely.

Quoting: TheRiddickHow long/big is this game meant to be? I've heard people say they beat the EA in around 4hrs which is ultra short even if its not full content yet! (heard EA was like 75% of the game).The road map [External Link] mentions these headlines:
* Story Chapter One (Early Access Start Content)
* Story Chapter Two (During Early Access)
* Story Chapter Three (For the full release of the game)

Steam not working right on Arch Linux? It's an issue with FreeType and there's a fix

One was if you were running a system without udev. Another where you ended up with an unbootable system if you upgraded grub non-interactively with an unknowingly broken configuration.
Both quite esoteric cases fortunately.

Quoting: slaapliedjeI'm not sure if DebianUser is thinking of the same bugs as I, but there where a couple of bugs over the last years where grub broke for some users.Quoting: DebianUserHuh, do you have something weird there? I've been running stable for decades, and haven't had grub break. Also, I mean why would you reboot unless you've updated the kernel? :PQuoting: GuestI kinda brace myself since some people love to point fingers at things like this and claim that Arch is a bad/buggy/difficult distro. I ran it for many years and something big like this happened maybe once or twice a year and always had a simple fix; it's darn solid. I am pretty sure I had more problems with my distro of choice's last upgrade than my entire Arch days..I don't know Arch but tu put things into perspective, i'm using Debian, and they have broken grub two times this two last years (on stable), leaving users who have updated at the wrong time with an unbootable device without any warning (have to use another install or live cd, and reinstall grub on the disk).
Of course, this problem has been spotted in derivatives (Ubuntu, Mint...)
So yeah... sh** happens, even on the most stable distros (and on Windows too, of course).

I really thought better of HP considering their site for the Linux drivers is just a banner saying something like "Oh, Linux drivers? You know what, you can download them here, but you probably won't need to. They're already included in your distro."

Quoting: slaapliedjeNice, depends on the printer too. The HP that I had actually had 'chipped' ink cartridges, and it'd detect third party ones... talk about DRM for Printers....That's just horrible.

I just buy the cheap big pack knock-off cartridges.
Funny though, the Windows drivers complain loudly about non-OEM cartridges. The Linux driver does not. We're clearly missing important features! I shall have to make an official complain.

Yeah, IPP Everywhere supposedly solves all these issues, but I haven't tried it for myself yet. People keep giving me their old "broken" printers so I never buy anything new.
