Quoting: WotanI see it now. Well I think it's quite logic. They are showing their distro to the big public, telling them "Hey, we have an easy solution if you want to try another o.s. and play some games without thinking too much or complicating your life".

Steam OS is VALVE's Distro... I don't think that shows any kind of disrespect to other distros. After all Steam is a private platform. And as far as I'm concerned, and as long as Valve keep pushing AMD to improve linux drivers, I'm happy.

Gosh, amd 7770 + linux.. what a suffering.
Why are you suffering? The latest news regarding AMD's open source drivers for that card has shown remarkable improvement. Things are looking up quite a bit.
Because he doesn't use open source drivers?
Then maybe he should try them so his suffering can potentially end?
And get worse performance on newer hardware? I do give props to how fast the OS drivers are evolving. I myself will probably never use them however.

Experimenting with Steam's In-Home Streaming
3 Feb 2014 at 4:54 pm UTC

Quoting: tuxisagamerI had hit or miss functionality. I do not have any Windows boxes at the house. So I tried Linux to Linux and Wine (both 32-bit and 64-bit) to Linux.

Streaming from Linux did not always resize the resolution to match my laptop. Also, most games had some sort of issue. To The Moon was even upside down and mirrored.

From Wine to another Linux box always properly resized the resolution but there was no sound however there were no input issues as had been the case in Linux to Linux.
I wouldn't personally consider that a "normal" use case, or the intended use at least.

Aside from that, WINE isn't written with streaming in mind (at least not yet).

Quoting: Quote from n30p1r4t3They've already hit their goal and because of that; I'm a backer.
You know that Kickstarter doesn't charge you any money unless a campaign reaches their goal, right? If everyone waited for a project to reach their goal, nothing would ever get successfully funded.
Of course. I just like to have my expenditures mapped out so I know when and how much I have to pay. Budgeting and all that.
