Stan, Hori, and thelimeydragon:

We have updated the Linux Desura App to 120.25, which should have fixed some installation crashes and various crashes while running. Would you mind seeing if this version works for you?

Thank you!!

Hi guys!

We've released a Linux Beta version (320.28) that fixes quite a lot of crashes on Linux. It does not yet support Arch Linux, we're still working on that.

You can get Beta releases by:
1) Launch Linux client
2) Choose Settings from left-side menu
3) Choose the Beta tab
4) Select "Participate in Desura Public Beta" and 'Save'

A dialog should appear after it downloads the beta.

Thanks everyone!!

It has been a fun "holiday" getting this ready to test, but the Linux version is ALIVE!. The 64bit version is available and the 32bit version is forthcoming today.
Please test and beat on this client if you can. It is available at:
http://www.desura.com/desura-x86_64.tar.gz [External Link]

(Later it will be available at http://www.desura.com/install [External Link] )

Please report any issues to [email protected]. Please provide all system information and any relevant console data for the issues you discover. Thank you so much!!!

I'm sorry for the delay, but the Beta will not be available until Friday (December 26).

Hi everyone!

We at Desura will be releasing a Beta of the current Linux client tomorrow (December 23 - probably towards the end of the day). We could sure use your help beating on it, especially under different Linux environments. Anything you find would need to be reported to [email protected].

Instructions on how to obtain this Beta will be forthcoming. Please watch this space for further information. Thanks in advance!

Also, we really appreciate your patience!
