I might have to pick this up. Everyone seems to be raving about it!

Quoting: EhvisThe subliminal message from the Steam link is real!

(or in other words, you may want to check what you linked to :D )

Oops, I proofread this and missed that! Sorry all. Now fixed (by someone competent!).

Quoting: CanadianBlueBeerSame for 3 monitors.

The config options for either Ubuntu or Mint, choose display, there you can set the primary monitor, and it will stick.

I'm not sure what you mean here. I run Ubuntu and there's no "choose display" option that I know of. Hence the article!

20 minutes. That's how long I "lasted" playing this game. Hell no.

Yeah, poor communication, really frustrating. That said, if they stick a steamOS logo on this, I'm definitely buying it! :)

Hmmm, when he said "what about a native Linux port", I didn't get the impression that he was talking about "The End is Nigh". I imagined (perhaps optimistically) that he meant, "I've finished working on this, but I've also got an unannounced Linux port in the works".

Quoting: Avehicle7887I'm not at home this week so unable to post my xorg config however, I run my 2 displays as 2 separate x screens which means whatever happens on one screen will not affect the other. The only limitations are that you can't drag windows from one another.
2 X screens never failed me regardless of game engine or wine.

Similar to how Hamish runs his set up. I'd miss dragging screens over - I run Chrome and the Steam client off to the side when I'm gaming, but I prefer to work on the much bigger Acer screen when I'm not, so I just drag my Chrome browser over. Sure, I could kill it and restart, but for me, that's nowhere near as optimal.

The solution in this article has been perfect for me so far. Hopefully it helps someone else.

Would love to buy/play this, but I'll only show support with my wallet when I see support for the game. It sounds like I might be buying it one day though! I can hope.

Quoting: ripperThere is no bulletproof method, since you're setting only the default. Any app can still ignore it and implement its own logic. This might be better with Wayland.

Yeah, that's a really good point. What's odd though is that Liam is having trouble with DOTA2, but it works okay for me. Similarly, MayeulC noted above that there are issues with Payday2, but again, I'm alright. It's just so inconsistent. Maybe you're right about Wayland, but that still feels years away (for Nvidia people at least).

Just finished Dig (straight after being blown-away by Heist), so this is getting bought immediately! Bye bye weekend!
