The latest Steam Hardware Survey is out
2 Apr 2016 at 11:39 am UTC

I think you reading this wrong. The percentages under each line heading adds up to 100%. e.g. Microphone "Yes" + "No" + "Unknown" adds up to 100%. Hence, each heading considers *all users using Linux*, and lists the proportion of users that use each of the options. Here, the distros should also add up to 100%, but they do not for some reason. Perhaps there are other distros that they didn't list properly, and presumably should have gone into Other? In any case, these percentages only reflect ratios, with the denominator being the total number of Linux users, so you can't draw any conclusions about the total number of Linux users from this.

New Linux & SteamOS gamer survey for February

Technically, KDE is the company (like Canonical), and the desktop environment is Plasma.

You could just change the entry to "KDE Plasma" to avoid confusing people.

Quoting: GuestSo just refering to 'this kind of file' is a bit lame without specifying what exactly we are talking of.
Wow, that escalated quickly. In any case, "this kind of file" was specified in the previous sentence, i.e. "user inventions".

Quoting: GuestI hope you agree that 1.9MB is something different from 494M. And I did not download any user inventions etc. as the game would not run at all.
Yes, I do agree. I was merely pointing out that "for me" (to quote myself) it was different, just in case people were turned off by these apparent bugs in some systems. There's no need for snark.

For me, after deleting the lib files in the links, it works fairly well. (I'm not 100% sold on the gameplay, TBH, but that's another story…)

@Pit for me, that directory is fairly small.

$ du -hs ~/.config/spotkincm
248K /home/poz/.config/spotkincm

=EDIT=

I downloaded a few user inventions, and now it's 1.9 MB. However, I think it's reasonable enough for devs to put this kind of file there, isn't it? Perhaps better in a cache directory, but this isn't horrible, IMO.

A Reminder To Fill Out Our February Survey

The final question regarding AAA games is misleading. Every option suggests that I *have* bought a AAA game on launch day, which is not true. (FWIW I selected "average".)
