SuperTuxKart is trying to get on Steam, be sure to give it a vote
24 Feb 2017 at 4:05 pm UTC

Yes! I love this game and have been playing it on Steam for about 6 months with the add library feature.

I laugh when I log in and get a friendly, 'Don't forget to play SuperTuxKart!'. Oh, I won't ; )

NVIDIA 378.13 stable driver released
15 Feb 2017 at 12:41 am UTC

Right after I said I hadn't been burned by the NVIDIA drivers -- this one got me. (My luck 100%!)

Had to chroot/roll back to 375.26 on Arch 4.9.9 (GTX 1070). I was happy to see what the Pascal features were, but we'll see.. going to try one more time with resetting a few pieces; wanted to warn others that there could be issues with non-boot/stuck at GDM (for me, idk about SDDM or others).

EDIT: All is well. For anyone else to has this problem, here is what I did to resolve it:
- Revert to 375.26 (Or whatever you came from)
- Comment out any mods that are 'exported' into the environment. Search with env | grep '__' (content face?!)
- Remove any .nvidia-settings-rc file you have.
- rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf (backup if you want to reuse it or reference it after reinstall.
- Reinstall 378.13 driver
- Reboot
- Revert any changes you made and want to keep
- Good luck/ cheers -

The 'Humble Freedom Bundle' is huge and well worth picking up

Quoting: morbiusNice bundle, but I already own everything from it that I care about. Maybe only if someone has an extra key for No Time to Explain or Mini Metro.
Mini Metro is an amazing game! It's probably best suited for an iPad, and I feel silly playing it on 2160p, but it scales well and, the best part, is a relaxing game. I'll see if my copy is eligible as I really don't play it much anymore... and would rather it not go to waste.
