With Logitech products, specifically their gamepads and such, the functionality is hit or miss. You can have an OpenSUSE box that recognizes a Logitech gamepad perfectly, an Ubuntu box that doesn't...

Yes, it IS QuickSync, but there is a lot of work to be done to allow software to use it.

Does it work well in 16:9 resolutions? I want to get back to playing this game ASAP as I have several retail copies of it.

One thing Valve could do to help Steam on Linux is to get the open source Linux games that people already played before Steam hit Linux on the service. That would draw in more users. The distro...

I hope there's some power management stuffed somewhere in these new drivers or coming soon. I plan on buying a new Haswell notebook in the Fall and it will likely have Nvidia graphics since it's hard...

Incorrect. People do use JPEG2000 for specific commercial applications which is why JPEG2000 support was requested and implemented. Current information says that nobody except Google uses Google's...

Nobody uses WebP - which isn't even useful at this point since it hasn't matured and under-performs - and JPEG2000 was requested by Darktable users, so it's important enough.

I don't know why it posted in this thread. I typed it up in the other one. Bizarre. :eek:

I suppose this is good news but since most Linux users are likely to build their desktops themselves - especially if they are gamers - I can't see it catching on. Laptops would be a better thing for...

I just wish they'd release the source code to the X-Wing/TIE Fighter series. That would be awesome if someone did a massive engine update using the code from XW: Alliance. Dark Forces is already...

Fan-made assets - of which many exist - could easily replace the assets on the CDs except for the dialogue files, but the game is really not bad at all without the dialogue since it has subtitles for...

NO. Only more memory or software tweaks/improvements can do that.

Not likely. Those cards are End-Of-Life and I'm pretty sure they have dropped support for those cards on both Windows and Linux at this point.

I keep hoping we'll get a port of the original Unreal. That's the only decent Unreal-series game I've ever played. The rest were not at all interesting despite their superior graphics.

This will definitely help Linux gaming. Especially if the quality of the updated OpenGL version is better than the old VESA (super sharp high-resolution) graphics mode that the original had. I can't...

Not really. Six years ago, sure. But not today. I see nothing but sleek and slim notebooks that weigh a fraction of the models I sold in retail several years ago, even at the 17-inch market segment.

Simple solution. Go NUCin futz! There's gonna be a bunch of Intel NUCs coming out in the next few months and you can use some of them to throw together your own and sell/trade the rest for various...

It works, just not very well. From what I've read, Intel's OpenCL development is focused solely on their MIC add-in cards at this time and once they have that worked out, the work will be carried...

SS3 is not a high-end game unless it's played on high-end hardware and the Serious Engine scales very well, which makes it an ideal release since most Linux users are not packing high-end hardware....

Probably not. There isn't anything in the upcoming consoles that hasn't been in PC cards for years. Most games have been sitting at XP/Vista quality simply because most hardware in customer's...
