    Half-Life 1 & Counter-Strike 1.6

    I posted in the Steam discussion what I found. We'll see if anyone has that same problem. Have only installed 3 or 4 games so far and none of them have asked for credentials or permissions. Specially Serious Sam BFE! It just ran... no problems...

    Half-Life 1 & Counter-Strike 1.6

    We'll see, as people like us report bugs, they can fix it, but as I have always experienced with Linux downloads... you have to make them executable and give full permissions so you can install and run it. There has to be a way Steam can do it too.

    Half-Life 1 & Counter-Strike 1.6

    I finally tried out the original Half-Life in LInux for some reason it won't launch from Steam. So (of course) I used Terminal to navitate to the Half-Life folder: /home/booman/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/half-life I'm not sure why its in common, probably because its not a source game...

    Worst Game experience in Linux?

    I've had a lot of small learning experiences where I would have to re-install again and again. Mostly because I didn't know how to undo something I installed, so I would have to start over. My biggest mess was trying to install ATI drivers for my old Radeon 9600 Pro. I would follow steps on...

    Historic Computers Brought Back From the Dead

    That was GREAT! I only have the last 12 years of computing history experience, but I have read a lot of about those ancient giants. Its so cool to see someone working on them and refurbishing them. What a hobby

    120 Gig Samsung SSD hard drive

    We'll see, I have read many-a-review on other SSD drives and people are having issues. You are the only one I know who doesn't have problems with your hard drive.

    Half-Life 1 & Counter-Strike 1.6

    I was going to try Steam in Mint this morning and my internet was intermittent. Turns out my ISP was having problems. I'll try again in the morning. If Half-Life and Counter-Strike show up on my games list, then I'll download and give them a try

    Half-Life 1 & Counter-Strike 1.6

    True, but wait until Half-Life 1 downloads and install all by its-self... no virtual drives, no wine, no hassle... just a few clicks. Dreamy I didn't see any news about Half-Life 3

    Mythbuntu

    My co-worker introduced me to Mythtv and replacing his TiVo box. I really like this idea... building my own pc to record television and using Linux is right up-my-alley! Have any of you worked with Mythtv and the required hardware? Any tips? Mythbuntu Mythtv

    Black Judas has a game mix that "apparently" run natively in LInux: Games that run natively in Linux also, Heethen has a game mix for games that run in Wine: Games that work on Linux (Wine)

    Desura Forum

    the only difference is Desura has a client that downloads and installs the game for you. Good Ole Games just has a download and you still have to install the game yourself.
