Yep. Just search the package's name. Remember to uninstall other nvidia drivers before installing that one. In case of doubt After adding the PPA sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-cache search nvidia you should see the latest NVIDIA driver listed by version

To those who don't want to deal with the terminal, use this PPA https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/nvidia Works with Linux Mint/Ubuntu

HMm.. no, Family Sharing is disabled when offline. If you want to share games, you can a) install steam in said computer, download it and bootstrap it to force it offline. It's what I do. Family Sharing has a lot of rough corners...

Hm... I tried Family Sharing... it's actually pretty disappointing.... :( I expected it to be... less difficult and more flexible.

Finally! I've been waiting for this.

Ok, well, you need to create shortcuts pointing to your main steam installation in every new virtual drive you create. (plus import the registry) This is because you need to be running steam in each virtual drive so that the steam game runs. It sounds a bit confusing. If you try to launch a...

Alright. I was going to write a blog post about this, but decided against it for the sake of other people to jump in and comment. There are certain people who think that source code should be provided and licensed with a open source license (MIT/GPL/LGPL/etc). The idea of seeing users having...

Sounds way.... too risky with the DLL tampering alone. I like it.. but I rather valve tells us if it's permitted...

Hey guys, I thought about it... let's say this past week and weekend (now) have been all about the project I've mentioned here. I got most of the material I've wanted. I've been reading Xserver/SSH/WINE manuals to implement some cool stuff in the future and hopefully come up with the alpha...

A truly magnificent piece of history :) watch the video!

Here Compatibility as in changing windows versions.

WINE code will keep ageing, there's no doubt about that. Thing is... with regressions it's always unknown what broke or why unless you spend hours debugging WINE =/ Have you tried to change compatibility in winecfg? Does marking direct x DLLs natively helps?

Most of the time yea, games that are on humble bundle will have the Steam icon on them meaning it's available in that platform

Guacamelee and Dust: An Elysian Tail (there's a native version available) are a must play :D

Adding up I have heard that Crytek SDK was ported to Linux... I wish they (not kingdom come developers) ported crysis 3 to linux. But yea, the game looks AMAZING. Personally I'm not buying the "non-linear" story, all stories are linears regardless on how many side quests you add, besides that...

i use KDE. I hated KSnapshot due to it being so obtrusive when taking screenshots. I installed scrot (apt-get install scrot) Edited my global shortcuts in KDE with mkdir ~/screenshots Assign PrnScrn hotkey with this command (doesn't have to be print screen button) scrot...

thanks for reposting, I was having a convo with Daerandin but... when the post got moved to the front page i didn't see that one.. Thanks for moving it to the front page. :)

You can use Steam Workshop to download mods for Skyrim . I use WINE 1.7.10-CSMT for better performance and disable the debug options. Think of running Skyrim in steam as if you were running it on windows, it just runs great. What I do is just, go to the workshop, install the mods and run...

PoL only uses Python for the GUI parts.This is a quote from a blog post I did on my blog while diving into PoL I.... kind of... have been refraining to submit patches to PoL. Now, I don't want to compromise when I say this. I've been thinking of coming up with a fresh system for WINE bottle...

Thanks for the feedback. I think that... the biggest problem right now is that PlayOnLinux doesn't know how to handle symlinks which is really a tiny small fix to add, if it did the guide would have been so much shorter :(, but, once you establish the foundation of steam and a steam library...
