Anyone runs an AMD R9 or R7 GPU, on Linux?

AMD proprietary drivers are a nightmare. Never been able to correclty use an AMD GPU on Linux except if I could use the FOOS driver and, in that case, it rarely supports the latest GPUs.

So, for AMD, no matter what you do, it's all about compromises. Too bad, being Canadian, I was a big AMD fan (ATI was a Canadian company).

I decided to switch to NVidia and XCom, The Witcher II and Borderlands II are just awesome, all maxed out (Gigabyte, GTX 750 TI).

I don't know what M. Geldreich is talking about... :)

All of this is the reason why they are working on OpenGL-5.

And yes Linux needs more than 1.2% of marketshare to draw the attention of developpers.

As long as there is no true Steam Machine offering, side by side with XBone and PS4, we can't speculate about the SteamOS performances or future.

IMO, if these boxes can get the Linux marketshare at around 5% to 10%, things will change because Linux will become attractive for developpers. From that point, who knows...

It's all about what comes first and somebody (Valve) has to start the whole thing and it's not done yet.

March 2015, they say...

Quoting: Xpander

Quoting: GuestSorry but no, you said it like a universal truth that applied to everyone and everything everywhere.

you miss understood then .. we are in the GoG Galaxy topic.
and my post here was a reply to Imants who said "We have steam allredy why do we even need Galaxy?"

Yeah. I read on too many forums something like "We already have Windows, why do we need Linux (and/or) SteamOS?".

I'll never make mine this way of thinking...

Still we have the freedom of choice... Use Steam or GoG or Desura. Has best fits your taste.
But, for my part, I really do thank Steam for the Linux push and that's why I mainly use Steam.
This said, the reason I dropped Windows is all about security, viruses, spywares, processes running in the background and all that crap that plagues windows.

I just hope GoG and Desura will be permitted to run on SteamOS... That Valve won't make it impossible for them to run on their OS just like MS would have done... Another reason why I hate them...

But since SteamOS (not the steam client) is open source, it shouldn't be a problem.

Aside from Champions of Regnum and from what I read there's a lot of critics about this game, it's really hard to find a good medieval MMORPG on Linux. Anybody has a clue why?
