Some new sections

It would be nice to have some new sections like, "problems running games" or "HOWTOs"

Perhaps also a section for Gaming on other FOSS platforms (EG: the BSDs). I know its a Linux forum but there might be some room for our Cousins.

+1 good idea IMHO, PC-BSD is rather user friendly OS

Of course they do. Unix is practically same as linux (both use X, same environments, run same apps.). Why wouldn't games run there?!

Re: Some new sections

There are various reasons why there may be incompatibles between Linux native games and BSD, such as libraries and driver issues. For the most part though they do tend to be compatible, and I believe they have a Linux compatibly library available that simulates Linux system operations for certain applications. Not 100% sure on that though, should look it up again at some point.
