Is it suitable for kids? I am sure my 9 year old will ask for it the moment she learn about it. Thanks!

Linux Mint 20.1 released, will be supported until 2025

I just ordered bunch of new hardware components to set up a new system, hopefully for the upcoming weekend, if kids and dog permits, and will slap new Mint 20.1 on it. Since I moved on from Win to Linux, I've been using Mint, mostly gaming and productivity and while I was curios about other distros, I had no need to distro hop even once. Tried Ubuntu and POP (in VM) but did not like the philosophy behind Gnome. Mint + Cinnamon is really all what I needed, rock solid, OS is never in my way and now I am just so used to it. Wanted to share this, cheers!

Augustus is awesome. I am currently at Caesarea and it looks like I am about to finally finish the game after all these years since original buggy release. I just need to find time to do so.

Running DOSBox games from Steam on Linux just got better with a fresh release of Boxtron for Steam Play

Quoting: dreamer_GOG version of Warcraft 2 is Windows-only version, so I'll assume you have some older release; I do not support it officially (and can't really test various scenarios people will try to use it with), but you can save your dosbox config in warcraft2.conf, create simple .bat file with single line: "dosbox.exe -conf warcraft2.conf" and add it as non-Steam game - Boxtron will be tricked into thinking you want to run Windows version of DOSBox and will take over. Also, you would need to place your game in ~/.local/share/games/warcraft_2/ directory (that's where install-gog-game script would put it).
Hi dreamer_, thanks so much for your reply. This! I just got back from work, but will try to test this asap. Yes, you are correct, the version I have is a DOS version of WC2. It was in the back of my head that I need to do something with the config, and forgot about it later. Thanks again!

Added non-Steam game Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness and it is not working, while it is working fine with DOSBox. Is there some additional set up for non-Steam games?
