    Portal 2: $5. Good deal.

    Already got it, still havn't played it! Its on my list of "Games to play" I would love to play it cooperative. By the way, its a HUGE download, something like 12 Gigs.

    Who installs Linux with a CD-ROM anymore? Not me... Is that a rack-mount server? What kind? Very nice man! Enjoy Ubuntu, the only problems you might has is slow windows management because those stinking integrated video chips really suck. I have a SuperMicro tower server with Fedora 18 and...

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    Good point. Or maybe just the games that get a lot of attention. League of Legends seems to be one of the most popular games for Linux gamers. I re-installed it over the weekend and found that I could make my guide better and even more clearer. Thanks for the tips

    League of Legends Guide

    By the way, I installed League of Legends over the weekend and used Wine 1.7.4-LeagueOfLegends. It works GREAT! AT first it wouldn't login and I found that if you disable "peer to peer" in the options it now logs in. But Same as you... if I click the store, I get a crash.

    League of Legends Guide

    I recommend using the "Virtual Desktop" in Wine Configuration because it gives you more control over the resolution and graphics settings in games. It just makes setting the resolution easier because it doesn't resize your Linux Desktop. It only re-sizes the virtual desktop. Yeah, the 8400 may...

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    PlayOnLinux is nice that way. I just wonder if my guides need to be updated by testing them with newer versions of Wine? There are a few guides that use old versions of Wine and who knows if they work on newer ones. Backwards compatibility is a mystery with Wine.

    Heroes of Might and Magic 1 & 2 Guide

    Exactly, so you won't need to include all the DosBox steps in each guide since there are a lot of steps. But definitely include the conf setup. Those are always game specific.

    Heroes of Might and Magic 1 & 2 Guide

    Ah, you make a good point. Maybe you should write a DosBox guide they way you do it and then add a link to all of your Game Guides. As you have seen in my guides, I decided to repetitively show readers how to install wine and create shortcuts, etc. I did this because I hate it when I'm...

    Heroes of Might and Magic 1 & 2 Guide

    Wow, I didn't realize it would require so much Terminal interaction. In my DosBox guide, I just installed DosBox through the software manager, then extracted the GOG game to my dosgames folder. Made a conf for the game and a shortcut to launch.

    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

    I've had these exact same solutions and most of the time it doesn't make sense. Why Wine 1.2? How come the newer versions of Wine don't work? Where is the backward compatibility? Its strange that an older version of Wine worked, but it worked! Thanks for posting your success! I'm still...

    Warcraft III Guide

    Warcraft III is obvious the third installment of Blizzards original Real-Time Strategy genre. Boasting new 3D graphics, more options, single-player campaign story, and much more... The installation is simple, it runs great and it doesn't require Battle.net to install. Sometimes having an old...

    Acer 21in All-In-One PC $309

    No WAY! How can a 10" tablet have a resolution that high? Wow, just wow! Imagine having pixels that small on a 21" monitor! The resolution would be 4 times higher

    GOL Facebook feed?

    Isn't Facebook just a blogstyle format? Maybe Xenforo has a gadget that will just display the updates I post.

    Acer 21in All-In-One PC $309

    Ooh, me likes it! I just thought it was a decent price for a large touchscreen and computer. There was another one for $397 or so It wasn't a touchscreen, but it had a Pentium. Linux could easily be installed on it.
