Why do you keep twisting it and telling me I've got everything ass backwards, then espouse the exact same thing I just said? What is wrong with both of you?

Quoting: HamishWe need to show that there is a native market on Linux if they are going to be convinced to make a change.

Thank you. ^_^
And you also helped by making my point for me - I really do not see why a game company would take that much interest in Wine stats as that means people are buying and purchasing their games already. We need to show that there is a native market on Linux if they are going to be convinced to make a change.

Quoting: CheesenessI can't really speak for Hamish, but he certainly didn't come across as confrontational or lacking insight to me.

Quoting: CheesenessWhilst stats of Wine users as a separate metric may be of value in some respects, I think it would undermine the efforts and recognition of people actually running native software if the numbers were to be mixed with people running software that pretended to be WindowsYes, that is my point. Thanks. Oh wait...
Quoting: Cheesenessand in the end make for less accurate data rather than more accurate as you claim.So I say if I'm using wine, that I should count as linux. You say that wine stats should not be mixed with windows stats, which seems to be in agreement with me. Then you say I'm wrong? How does that work?
Quoting: CheesenessIMO, championing Wine usage stats is a trap.Which is why there shouldn't be any. It should count as linux, because that's the OS you're running. Who, besides you, ever mentioned such a thing as stats for wine?

I think the assumption that Wine usage would convince a developer to support Linux is flawed. From a business perspective, if you already have Linux users buying your non-native titles, then that's a market already satisfied without the overheads of porting, extra support or testing. It would take a more insightful publisher/dev studio than most to believe that native support was worth the effort.
IMO, championing Wine usage stats is a trap.

Quoting: AnonymousTo save time, let me just tell you that a company questioning whether or not to port a game to linux would want to know how many potential new customers they could get for their efforts. In that respect, someone running a linux OS is what matters. The fact that a gamer is using a workaround to play something is irrelevant in the course of having accurate data to base that decision on. If linux is their os, then linux is what should be reported. Otherwise the real numbers are watered down by people using workarounds like wine, thus ultimately delaying or completely preventing linux ports because it looks like no one is using the OS.
Now, if you'd like to be less confrontational about this very simple concept, I'd be happy to clarify anything that still eludes you.

What are the stats on number of linux users for Steam going to be used for? Ponder that for a moment.

Quoting: HamishYou don't buy it? Well that's a little confrontational for someone who misses the point. Since you set the tone, allow me to carry it:Quoting: MowsDoes that count me incorrectly as a windows user since I was having to run the windows version of steam to play it?
I am sorry, but I do not buy that assertion If you are using the Windows version, why would it saying you were a Windows user be incorrect? What does WINE usage have to do with Linux client usage? I am not condemning you for anything here, but this notion that WINE statistics should count as Linux bothers me, as you are still being a Windows customer for them regardless.

I tried Portal yesterday, and get the same problems as with Team fortress 2 and Counter-Strike:Source:
It looks nice and seems to be fluid sometimes, but every few seconds (or every second), it lags a bit and the sound stutters.
Note: Posting CLI output on this forum is still not very nice. I had to deal with interpreted [\size=] statements from lspci and there is no scrollbar, making this take up a lot of space.
I think [code/verbatim] tags could be quite useful... ;)

Steam's April hardware survey shows poor Linux statistics!
By Hamish, 6 May 2013 at 3:37 pm UTC
I am sorry, but I do not buy that assertion If you are using the Windows version, why would it saying you were a Windows user be incorrect? What does WINE usage have to do with Linux client usage? I am not condemning you for anything here, but this notion that WINE statistics should count as Linux bothers me, as you are still being a Windows customer for them regardless.

Hey all,
We would love to bring Snuggle Truck to Linux. It would involve upgrading our project to Unity 4 and dealing with all of the things that break in the upgrade. We're looking for an additional engineer to help with things like that, and if the position gets filled, you'll see Snuggle Truck on Linux some time in the future :)

Steam's April hardware survey shows poor Linux statistics!
By Cheeseness, 6 May 2013 at 11:49 am UTC
A number of Steam users are prompted to voluntarily participate in the survey each month. If you didn't receive a prompt to participate, then your details are not included in the results. There's a summary window prior to submission which lists all of the information collected. When running in Wine, this shows the Windows version that Wine is configured to emulate as the operating system version (whether this is incorrect is definitely debatable :) ).
If you're looking for more reading, I've compiled all the solid information that I've been able to find here.
Edit: Wine and Gecko are listed as installed software, but it's unclear as to whether or not this has any bearing in the results seen on the Steam website - I'd hazard a guess and say none.
By Cheeseness, 6 May 2013 at 11:49 am UTC
Quoting: MowsThe big question I have is the way this is calculated. I was playing a lot of New Vegas in April using WINE. Does that count me incorrectly as a windows user since I was having to run the windows version of steam to play it?
These metrics are useless until we know how accurately they're being compiled.

Secondly, to enable/disable raw mouse input, go into Options -> Keyboard & Mouse (inside L4D2). Then you'll see it called Raw Mouse Input. To the right of it is the selection for enabled/disabled. Hope that helps :)

There are some cool comments on there that warm my heart a bit:
Later, a couple of folks agree with him. Am I the only one who feels that it's pretty rare to see such joy in OS inclusiveness outside of crowd-funding? Also, it always helps to foster the belief that we are an engaged and cohesive community when a dozen "Backing for Linux!" (and Mac) comments pop up in the day following a stretch goal met.
Personally, I give a little more to projects with day-1 support, but with so many lovely projects these days, I actually have to be discerning! O_o
Also... saving a few dollars will help me put them in Liam's tip jar at some point soon :P

There is a bit of a mouse issue every once and a while, but enabling/disabling Raw Mouse Input generally fixes it for me. Pretty solid for a Beta thus far. Hope you don't mind me sharing my video Liam :)
View video on youtube.com
In the video I enable net_graph 1, so you can see the fps I'm getting at all times. It's ok, but does spike a lot depending on the action. Everything running at maxed graphics at 1080, if only my screen recorder would be more dependable. Thanks for the heads up btw, I only discovered I had L4D2 Beta thanks to this article :D

Quoting: n30p1r4t3Anyone getting random "freezes?" The game will lock up, and then resume. GTX 680 with i5 3570K @4.5Ghz. Arch with GNOME SHELL.Me too, ATI Radeon HD 6870, AMD FX4100 3.6ghz, xubuntu 12.04.2, and i have even swap out my ATI for 250GTS and still does the freezing (ATI back in), have also change kernel from 3.2 to 3.5 which made it better but still not great, also been hacking pulse audio, and all sorts of console commands and command line commands, still freezing, its playable and gives me 130 to 290fps, so it should not be freezing, go figure.
