Quoting: MrNilssonWait, August 21st is the birthday of Steam Play? It's also my birthday! :woot:
Happy birthday!

KDE has an unpatched security issue that's been made public
8 Aug 2019 at 2:47 am UTC

Quoting: Stupendous ManWhy didn't they notify the KDE team BEFORE publishing their write-up? That's what responsible disclosure is all about, and would have avoided this situation! Give the team a couple months to patch, and THEN make the write-up.
I'm a bug bounty hunter myself and any ethical hacker knows not to just disclose a bug to the world as soon as you find it. Pathetic.
They have to fix it ASAP, not a couple of MONTHS.

Mesa 18.0 released, further advancing Linux graphics drivers
30 Mar 2018 at 2:38 pm UTC

Quoting: tonRI mean r600 (HD 2000 series) not Evergreen. I'd bold it.

I think that r600 (in Mesa) doesn't necessarily refer to HD 2000 series codename, it refers to the 3D driver used by Mesa, as showed on the RadeonFeature matrix table here: https://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature/ [External Link]

So that evergreen part is pointing specifically at the GPU generation.

Quoting: tonRWell, as long Mesa not break I'm fine with that. Very curious how Mesa performance on Intel onboard graphic..
OpenGL 4.3 on r600/evergreen with hw fp64 support
Wow! HD2000 series? That's pretty old graphic card. It was on my wishlist along side GeForce 8 when I was teenager. Never got it. :(
Nope.
Evergreen is Radeon HD 5000 series. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radeon_HD_5000_Series [External Link]

Pro Evolution Soccer (any edition), because there is no such game on Linux right now.

Football Manager 2018 release date announced with Linux support once again

Quoting: fabertaweI think the point is the 2017 version is now out of date. The new season's started here in the UK and the staff and squads have changed. So if you want it to be realistic (after all it is a simulator of sorts) then you have to buy the new updated version every year. Too expensive for me I'm afraid.

I tried limping on with my old version for a while but I do want the players to be up to date. If you're not bothered by that of course, then you can play the same version forever :) It would be nice if you could just buy an update for the database to stay fresh.
If you want to be realistic then you have to keep paying every year, because the license needs to be extended, FIFA won't give the license for free.

Quoting: edono, its too expensive and it never gets cheaper since it gets deleted after a year
Football Manager 2017 price is now at -80% OFF, if you think it is still expensive then this game is really not for you.

That will be the third in the series to support Linux, ...
It will be the fifth.

What one game would blow your mind if it came to Linux & SteamOS?

It would be amazing if any football "field" game with official and real teams and players, like FIFA/PES/whatever. We've got Football Manager since 2013 (FM14), but still no football in the field.
Another games I want would be any Japanese big title, Final Fantasy/Street Fighter/Tekken/One Piece/Naruto/Dragon Ball/...
