They are porting Ubuntu (djembé is an african instrument) to Windows 10 (a spacious window in which you watch the sky) with half the performance... oh, wait! :P

So I managed to run it on my Manjaro Linux and AMD graphics card with open source drivers. Note that to do so I used 32 bit libraries not bundled with the game, so take this report just as a personal note.
My specs:
CPU AMD A10-7850K, 16 GB RAM DDR3 2133 Mhz
GPU AMD 7850 1 GB GDDR5
Kernel 4.5.2, Mesa 11.2.1, LLVM 3.7.1, libDRM 2.4.67
xf86-video-ati 7.7.0, XOrg 1.17
Driver used: radeonsi
Game was run at 1980x1080 resolution. Graphics drivers crashes if I run the game with graphics settings to anything above "Low", but benchmark works. On "low" settings the game suffers stuttering usually near a quick time event, making the experience very disappointing. Sometimes it skips entire sequences because of stuttering. The game isn't smooth, because the FPS oscillate.
Benchmarks results:
"Normal"
MIN: 6.9, MAX: 75.2, AVG: 56.0
"High"
MIN: 5.4, MAX: 67.7, AVG: 50.6
"Low"
MIN: 4.9, MAX: 84.8, AVG: 64.0
I will publish benchmarks under Windows 7, same PC, ASAP.

It's not launching on my Manjaro Linux (Arch Linux derivative) with radeonsi and mesa 11.2.1 because of some missing 32-bit libraries, I'm working on a fix...

Publishers never learn from years and years of piracy: offer DRM free content, in mkv, at 1080p and 720p resolution and x264, x265 codec or an open one and you'll win the Internet. Be fair with your customers!

Will they ever fix the Steam Runtime to run with open source graphics drivers?

Tested Saints Row 3 using the radeonsi open source driver on an AMD Radeon 7850 graphics card: resolution was automatically set at 1028x720 with medium detail. The game is playable in the first level, then, when you are on the streets it suffers the same low FPS problems as seen in Saints Row 4 (goes below 20 fps).

Quoting: subIs this a Winelib port or the Windows game packaged and preconfigured in Wine?
