Linux Steam Clues [Nov 29, 2008, 4:42 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Linux lovers at
Phoronix have word that a number of Linux libraries are included in the
no-longer-active demo for Left 4 Dead, which they call "additional
confirmation that Valve Software has ported their Steam game client to Linux."
Their write-up actually wavers between speculation and certainty, but they place
a lot of weight on the fact that these Linux libraries are within the Windows
demo, not the Linux server, and bolster their case that native Linux support is
in the works at Valve by reminding us that Running with Scissors has
confirmed plans for a Linux version of Postal III, and that Postal
III will use Valve's Source engine.
I would've been in complete agreeance with Overon, but then Adobe CS4 came out with all sorts of 3D acceleration that is just too slow in Virtualbox.
Maybe one of these days I'll get a Mac that's good enough for Photoshop/InDesign, and game on Linux, with Steam and the various Wine/Cedega shenanigans.
