Quoting: tadzikI wouldn't be so impressed with their track record, in case of Worms Reloaded for example it didn't support any DLCs on Linux, and if I recall correctly doesn't even do cross-platform multiplayer. Hopefully WMD will set their record straight about this :)Despite that, it seemed to work pretty good. What engine was it built on?
Dear Valve and Steam Machines OEMs, you have it all wrong

Quoting: TouchMyBoxI certainly don't want my graphics cards to be discreet. ;)There is a standard for replaceable GPUs in small laptops etc. Shame it's not used like this. It would be perfect.

Quoting: KryukoItaliaunixcomI'm trying to update but i'm still to v2.70 and 355 nvidia drivers... =/You have to install the steamos-beta-repo package and update. I would not, since it actually softbricked a bunch of folks on the main thread on Steam Universe.

Quoting: liamdawesteamcompmgr is a compositor/ window manager. For those wondering, I would choose the window manager option in your PC info. I will add this info to the Wikipedia page on X window systems. It was never added. See https://lwn.net/Articles/611969 [External Link]Quoting: HoriYou make a good point, sonce SteamOS is an included Distro in the list, it makes sense for me to add it. Will do so tonight. I imagine it will be so low it wont even make the graph though.Quoting: AimelaYeah but this way we could know who's running desktop Linux and who's using a Steam Machine.Quoting: MohandevirWhat about BPM for SteamOS?That's not really a desktop environment, it's literally just Big Picture Mode being run almost by itself.
Steam Machine adopters are not going to switch to Linux just because they use SteamOS on their ConsolePC... they will most probably stay with Windows or Mac or whatever OS they used before.
IMO it's important to know how many people use BPM exclusively since they get a whole different experience.

Quoting: wojtek88That's the problem I have. I was using emulationstation with my Dualshock 4 and playing Contra, Goal 3 and other classics. Then I've heard about Atari Vault and started to think - is there a way to legally buy roms this days? Is there a way to be perfectly sure that you can play this game from the platform that is dead?Not exactly. You must buy the game and dump the ROM yourself. However, some Steam game collections actually diatribe the ROM file to make playing possible.

Quoting: m2mg2This is one of the big reasons I moved away from Debian. Multi arch support is a pain. Your can force mutli arch support but it gives you a bunch of scary warnings. You can try to find 32 bit versions but the support is sparse. Fedora has great multiarch support, I run 32 execs and compile 32 source on my 64 bit machine quite frequently.Exactly why I use pbuilder for making SteamOS packages like pcsx2. Though I. Ant agree about multiarch. I typically done hjave a problem. Most times, specifying package:i366 or package [i386] in Debian/control does the trick.
One thing you can do on Debian/Ubuntu, which I have done in the past, is create 32 chroot in your 64 bit system. You have to bind mount some dirs like /dev but it works really well, just wasteful as you have to maintain full installs of 64 bit and 32 bit at the same time.
This is awesome though, Ive been using dosbox for Need for Speed 1, with openglide for Tombraider and some other dos games. Now I can get Need for Speed 2 also.
Buy games from G2A? You should just stop already, tinyBuild lost out on approx $450K of sales

I diligently check the "Key Resellers and What They Mean For You" page on /r/linux_gaming whenever I even consider doing such a thing.

Quoting: AbacusSwitchBought it but I am having controller issues on Steam OS. Neither my steam controller nor my Xbox 360 wired controller work. I've tried calibrating but I get stuck halfway through when it asks for dpad input. All the buttons except for start and menu are no longer recognized. I'll go to the support page in a bit.to
