Quoting: Guest

Honestly, when things like this happens there's a good reason to open source it to allow it to continue and not go to waste.

This.

Give back to the community who funded you the code you have made thus far. Doing so will also reveal if you actually did ANY work, or if you're a criminal who stole everyone's money and should be prosecuted. Obviously if it were the latter, that would explain why they'd refuse to share the code that they do have.

It's on early access, you can play it right now. They obviously did work on it.

Quoting: throghThis is in fact not a problem within Linux or better to be said of a free distribution. It is more the problem of the hardware and the manufacturer: Releasing some kind of proprietary, closed black-box is the trick. [...]

Don't get me started on soft-raid and win-modems ... *feels rant bubbling*

Quoting: bingusWell if it is Mad Max.... I'd assume Feral will be charging the non bundle price. Bit of a difference!

Are you using some sort of plugin to disable the Humble bundle within the store page?

Quoting: Guesti am really shocked that blizzard has not had someone port wow to linux seeing how big it is,i mean cmon that is a no brainer

If I remember correctly, they don't even need to, as they've had an internal Linux client for years. I don't remember the source though.

Oh, this is horrible. From Big Picture, this page [External Link] shows compatibility with Win, Mac, and Linux and when following through the links all the way to the preorder, that info is never disputed.

It's flat out false advertisement at this point.

Quoting: CybolicThat reminds me, would it be worth it to set up a gaming hardware page on the Wiki? Something to easily see and submit whether various gaming mice, keyboards, wheels, controllers, etc. work properly in Linux?

Yes, it would be really useful to know in advance next time that Corsair keyboards don't work the same on Linux as they do on Windows.

We're getting off topic, but have you tried putting the switch in the back to BIOS mode? Worked for me, after I taped over the blinking LED.

Quoting: HomepcgamerI do have a big soft spot for Don't Starve, especially as we played Don't Starve: Together for GamingOnLinux 6th birthday (see this picture).

Reminder... You have to plug in your laptop... the battery is dying! hehe :D

That's actually for my mouse ;)

I can also verify that it's actually fun! Look out for this one :D

Quoting: soulsource[...]I'm curious: Why would using ALSA directly cause such issues?

Because most distributions these days use PulseAudio and accessing ALSA directly can cause... issues. If he/she means using the ALSA API instead, then PulseAudio should intercept that just fine.

I had some crazy bugs and mistakes that were only revealed by getting it running on three different platforms.

And right there's a very important benefit to cross-platform development, especially when doing it from the beginning!
