The PPA worked because it downloaded, but the installation was rather transparent. Won't the "upgrade" install Mint 16? I'll do some more research. You would think Mint 14 could still install newer video drivers?

Yeah still in Alpha, but what an amazing indie game and stunning visuals. I was able to play the Alpha in Mint too. I'm not a huge strategy gamer, buts I have to admit its pretty awesome for a free game.

There has to be a way to be totally sure Wine is using your GeForce drivers. Did you install the Nvidia drivers? You should find the Nvidia server settings GUI in preferences or administration. If its there, then you definitely have the proprietary Nvidia drivers installed. If not, then I would...

Absolutely! It should be available in your package manager. It is crowdfunded too Its a totally open source (FREE) time-period strategy game just like Civilization. http://play0ad.com/ You got to check this out!!!

Absolutely. When I do the install, does it just overwrite the old Nvidia drivers or am I supposed to remove those first?

Borderlands 2 continues the story of vault hunters pilgrimagging to Pandora. It is superior in every way over Borderlands with a lot more of everything. More weapons, more upgrades, more beautiful visuals, more enemies, more locations... on and on and on Follow my step-by-step guide on...

That would ROCK! You have heard of 0A.D. right?

Really? I wonder how it does that? I always imagined that you could go into the system BIOS and disable the Intel GPU and set the default as Nvidia. This is a common problem with laptops. With a desktop I purchased a dedicated video card and it is always the default for video.

I've had the same experience with my Acer C7 Chromebook. It has an Intel HD 2000 chip and some games do exactly that same thing! I've even tried a few games in PlayOnLinux and the models/assets appear, but no textures. Everything is just white. I'm guessing it is a shader issue. Those olde HD...

Yeah, I didn't know you could do that until recently either. Linux is pretty stinking cool. Can't do that natively in Windows.

Then I will wait for Mint 17 and stick with it for a year or so

Ah, I've seen this before: Also, lots of d3d errors. Do you know which video chip is being used? Intel or GeForce?

Nothing can boost Linux gaming more than actually development in Linux
