Does this only effect some games more than others? I haven't noticed much of a difference when playing Dying Light.
I have, however, been having some screen-tearing issues lately, but I'm not sure if that's from something I did or the driver.

Quoting: GuestAmen, also a graphical installer would be nice. It's 2016 and they still make you shut down Xorg and run it from the command line.

I'd personally rather see the more common distros support more up-to-date GPU drivers in their repositories.

Now, if only Nvidia would bring over some features that they have in their Windows driver/control panel.

Quoting: EhvisWith the Vulkan renderer, performance was almost instantly at DX11 levels. So very good for Linux users. Unfortunately, it's also very unstable for me (hard lock ups). From what I've seen on the beta threads, this instability is specific to the GTX970. Any others here have the same experience?

The game froze badly enough for me that I couldn't access the CLI to end the game's process(had to hard reset my PC), and I'm using a GTX 1080 so it doesn't seem to be GPU specific.

Well, it's hard to say exactly how accurate this is, considering that some people may have received the hardware survey within Wine or Windows in a dual-boot situation. Even if they reject the survey from the Windows client, that means they won't get another chance for the month and won't be counted.

Well, I tried this in my Arch Linux install and it doesn't seem to work. When I enable the option for it and reconnect the controller, it no longer becomes recognized by Steam and won't control the BPM interface until I turn the option off and and reconnect the controller again. Seems like it may be an issue with the Steam client that will require Valve to fix it.

It did work better in Windows. However, its functionality is too close to that of a Steam controller, which isn't great for games which natively support the Steam Controller(where the configuration isn't good for a DS4 controller) or the DS4 controller(where Steam will only make the controller recognized as an XInput controller, making DS4 controller prompts unavailable).

Quoting: staticx27<Cut for length>

Seems that neither method works for me. It just refuses to install.

So, how can I get this working on Arch Linux?

Quoting: skinnyrafZOTAC Steam Machine is equipped with a 2.2 (2.8 turbo) GHz i5-6400t CPU, thus fails to meet minimum requirements.

Still, requirements are generalizations and clock speed isn't everything.

Quoting: EhvisObvious question, why this over Starbound?

Yeah, from what I've seen from the trailer, it doesn't seem to have many differences from Starbound.
