Quoting: elbuglioneasuming Feral do not get a new Partner... for now can be:
2K, SEGA, Codemasters, Warner Bros or SquareEnix.

Anything older that 2 years is quate a low posibility. I hardly think Feral would bother to port DoW1 and CoH1; those were heavily discounted and bundled in the past. DoW3 is possible BTW...

Deus Ex games would be wonderful but Human Revolution was sold for a dollar couple years ago, so Feral would make no profit from it.

Total War games are highly likely.

I do not expect any FF games on Linux any time soon, nor I care..

Lara Croft ad Tomb Raider games would make sense due to success of the last port.

Anything from Codemasters is possible. :-D

2K seems to doing business with Aspyr rather than Feral recently in the case of Linux.

I have no expectation from WB...

Owlboy looks great but I am a bit broke to buy it on full price. Better wait for the upcoming holiday sales...

Well, it is most likely Hitman or another yet another Square Enix title. Everytime I see a Bethesda/ZeniMax title (Doom, Skyrim, Dishonored) wish, I shake my head with depression; it won't happen.

It might be a 2K or Sega title but I hardly think so. It must be Hitman.

Two robots are trying to survive; that sounds like Cave Story. ;-)

Quoting: knotted10I've made a research about this issue, it will be fixed on the release for xorg server 1.19, having kernel 4.5+ and latests would fix every screentearing issue for optimus laptops :D
I'm actually waiting for the moment that the arch linux release that xorg version to the stable repos and i'll switch to manjaro right away

That's interesting. Cause, Linux Mint will stick with kernel 4.4 for 2 years until the next LTS of Ubuntu released. Of course it will be possible to install backports but it still will be a hassle for end users.

Quoting: iplaygameswearingatuxGuys who have laptops with two graphics cards: don't waste your time reinstalling drivers. As for now, Nvidia isn't really bothering with optimizing drivers for laptops. Editing xorg.conf seems like the only way to go for us; but I don't know if it would work.

Yeah, I figured that out long time ago. But finding a magical xorg.conf for the exact hardware is quite hard...

Quoting: TwombyWasn't able to upgrade to latest version. Got a bunch of issues with the installer under Mint 18.1. Reverted back to 367.57 for the time being, but will definitely try again when I have more time on my hands. Thanks for this article and for the support provided by commenters!

You most probably have Nvidia/Intel hybrid laptop just like me. I am having the same "x screen 0 (no scanout)" screen name with GeForce 940M on Ubuntu 16.04 based Mint 18.1 for no reason. I can even use my Philips 32" TV as a HDMI output via system's default "mate-display-properties" while using proprietary Nvidia drivers. I have Nvidia driver 375.26 installed via "Proprietary GPU Drivers : “Graphics Drivers” team" PPA. I even tried several lower version drivers; no go... I will try Ubuntu Mate 16.10 soon, but I do not expect any difference; cause the problem exists also in Mint 17.3...

Quoting: emphyWho actually has the copyrights on this game, EA?

Must be EA which doesn't give a carp. Just download it from abondonware sites. If the game is no longer available digitally, one should feel no shame for pirating it. Simple.

I am still waiting OpenRA to finish implementing Red Alert campaigns.

Quoting: M@yeulCI wish it was bundled on Steam. I guess they could try to sell it/make it available on Steam as a mod.

Bethesda and Linux... That was a nice one. :-D
