Steam Hardware Survey For March 2015

Sry for the hate xD But I often understand the issues only when i experience them in person.

Steam Hardware Survey For March 2015
13 Apr 2015 at 2:38 am UTC

Quoting: KimyrielleI am actually surprised that the numbers aren't going up more noticeably compared to 1-2 years ago, since it was always thought that the lack of games would be one of the major reasons holding back Linux growth. With all the games now available, one should think this is less of a factor now - but we're still around the 1% margin we always have been at. Maybe the Steam machines will do something about it.
Sry to say that, but I believe its the fault of the distributions:

The top players are Linux Mint, which is community driven, Ubuntu which looks ugly, is slow and uses outdated software and represents linux for a lot of people and I believe Arch (?) which is however community driven as well.
1 year ago Ubuntu and Canonical had a very good position but nowadays I dont believe anyone really supports Ubuntu anymore with their egoistic behaviour...
Just think about, if you would have friends and family, would you *really* recommend them to use Linux? Like really? I wouldn't.

My hopes lay in the following distros, however I have my doubts:
*Elementary OS (Very appealing to new comers, and seems easy to use, however not a real software center there yet, kind of community driven)
*Fedora (well, they only support free software, so it will never be a sucess at all)
*Linux Mint (well its community driven.. so no one will invest into it at all, they dont have very innovative software :/)
*Arch Linux (Actually I believe Archlinux, or one of its deriviates, will soon be the biggest distro (bigger than all) because if you learn to know it the first time, the rolling release aspect will attract you and you never want anything else :)

Feral Interactive Are Teasing Another Linux Port
31 Jan 2015 at 4:35 pm UTC

Quoting: Beamboom
Quoting: leillo1975whale.... Dishonored, please
That's actually not a bad suggestion at all! Whales do play a role in the Dishonoured universe. And it's not ported to Mac yet either.

Man, I'd LOVE it to be Dishonoured! Yet another game I already own, but also yet another game I've barely started (Linux took over as gaming platform around the time I bought this game for Windows).
Its "Dishonored" ;O and its great yeah :D

Aspyr Media Have A New Port Due Soon & Might Bring Their Games To GOG
17 Jan 2015 at 8:30 pm UTC

Quoting: rustybroomhandleKnights of the Old Republic?
I am very sure its Knights of the Old Republic. It has now been available for Android and iOS, porting it over to Linux wouldnt be too much work and they would easily get money. pretty sure its KOTOR.

Speculation: BioShock Infinite Might Be an eON port
9 Dec 2014 at 9:01 am UTC

Please don't post speculation articles anymore :/ They make me feel bad or create wrong excitement.

Some IRC chat, are you kidding me >_>

But if its true: You are like enslavers ;( I like the witcher port, but I thought its more like because its a legacy game, and dont support the use of eON or any similar wrappers in the future.

War Thunder MMO Officially Launches On Linux

To change language, open config.blk with the texteditor, and add this line to the very beginning of the file:

"language:t="German" "

for example for German :)

You have to do this, because the linux version has no launcher (yet).

Quoting: edoI use Manjaro 64 bits kernel 3.17. Where do I fit? Does that survey count people outside ubuntu based distros? I mean, we need the "Other" category again.
Manjaro is Arch. As Linux Mint is Ubuntu. And NO, Ubuntu is NOT Debian.
