Quoting: Mountain ManAMD has really done a disservice to the Linux community with their poor support. If it wasn't for Nvidia, Linux gaming wouldn't be where it is today.

Don't talk utter crud.

Nv drivers have been reasonable on linux since what, the 90's. !

Why has it taken this long? And to point out, the games that were on linux prior to steam worked fine on AMD too. as both camps was generally beating the windows version on several games.

So the real force that catapulted linux gaming???? Valve/Steam end of.

Damn, That was fast :O

It is a shame though :'( His work was the reason for choosing roccat, No other manufacture has anything close like that of the roccat-tools suite that he's done.


QuoteThanks for letting me know northerner!

That was a statement of fact for me Which to anyone with reasonable reading comprehension would grasp!


Once again you are assuming that I in this case do not appreciate what the wine devs have done, again you are apparently a god of some sort and know what I think.
So please refrain in trying to post what I am feeling/thinking and stop been so condescending in your apparent greater than everyone else attitude.
