Quoting: vermillionI downloaded the update with the hope that it might fix the graphics lockup issue affecting radeonsi cards, but after about 5 minutes of playing, it happened again.

One guy at Phoronix said that disabling multicore rendering (under Video settings) fixed the crashes for him in radeonsi. You can try that.

Quoting: MGOidKubuntu is one of the few distros that delivers a pure KDE, without any customization, as showed in the images.

Yes, it even comes with a Qt browser: Firefox... wait...

Anyway, it probably is Kubuntu, because the *buntus are still considered to be the golden standard, unfortunately.

I don't think Firefox make it unpure, the theme and wallpaper are still untouched :-)

But, what choice did they have? Both Konqueror and Rekonq went MIA a long time ago, and there is no other QT browser well maintained and integrated with KDE, so the best is to stick with Firefox or Chromium.

The Gnome folks have Epiphany, but I wonder how many stick with it instead of Chrome or Firefox.

Quoting: MyeulCWell, to be fair, we don't even know if it's kubuntu (the tweets aren't from the computer's owner, AFAIK). It could even be that they decided to switch to KDE for their next SteamOS release, who knows?

Kubuntu is one of the few distros that delivers a pure KDE, without any customization, as showed in the images. And as Valve uses Debian as platform for SteamOS and Ubuntu as a target distro, I think is safe to say it is Kubuntu.

And now he is the most wanted man in the world. Look what using KDE did to him.

Stay clear of it folks.

Like some of the early comments, I have being a loyal AMD customer until this year, when I bought a used laptop and a mobo/CPU with Intel.

Is 2016, but unfortunately some games, about half I think, are still monocore processes. So for those, you need all single core power you can get. I remember playing Crysis 1 to 3, and it was amazing that the first one utilized 2 cores, when the last one utilized all 8 cores from my FX 8350. But unfortunately not all games are like that.

Early this year I got a opportunity of buying a used Intel CPU/mobo/memory combo (i7 3770k), for a really good price from a friend, and it was a eye opener to see how some games jumped in performance.

For some time now I want to build a mini-ITX system, but cannot find a new mobo for a good price for this i7 3770k, so next year, if Zen is good enough, I plan to get a full AMD ITX mobo/VGA to be my new rig.

I'm playing it in a weak AM1 APU (Athlon 5150) and it mostly maintain 30fps, so it is very light by modern standards. Using radeonsi driver with or without padoka PPA, the game run just fine.

The game is very cool, I cant remember hitting any bug, it is a excellent port.

But I am do not think it is very hard. People who say that never played Super Meat Boy or They Bleed Pixels.

Oh, and on a final note: you see this game Inafune? This was what we expected from a group of "veteran developers", that took 3 million bucks from people using pretty artwork and fond memories of a old game. Not buying your shit game after playing this masterpiece.

Or maybe some IOT computers ?

Yes, another possibility.

Linux is everywhere except for desktop computers, so in my head we won the war anyway.
