Originally posted by Michael View Postbut being told the really interesting stuff at the same time though as far as their plans go,
Originally posted by Michael View Postsince I've been helping them recruit some more developers and form some of their other Linux plans/strategies and providing technical feedback to Gabe & Co. So an interview or anything really isn't appropriate at this time. Heck from the like six hours there on Tuesday, what I posted in that first article was about the time of like 5 minutes of that day... And no, that's not because we were just sitting around and drinking beers for the other 5 hours and 55 minutes or anything like that...

Are you allowed to share what their plans are? Do you have the details on that?
So you have another 5 hours and 55 minutes of material? Is it higher quality than the first three articles you posted (which belong in your blog, by the way)? Can we expect more Valve-Linux news?
I've been asked/told not to publicly disclose that other information that was discussed. I got much more confirmation than I would have ever expected last week before going out there for how much information I was going to learn......
No, as said I can't share those other plans at this time... When I'm allowed to or whatever by Valve, there will be a massive carpet bombing and it will be great.Michael Larabel

I come to this site to read about Linux, Unix, etc not beer and lederhosen.
If it was because you're super excited about the Valve news, and didn't want to miss anything, I can understand why you were very disappointed in the article.
If you're annoyed in general about the non-Linux posts, I highly suggest posting in the forums- you'll get a better response there, because not everyone reads every article, and less comment on the article posts.
I hope you can appreciate that Michael was very excited about all he heard and saw, and so wanted to thank Valve with a special gift- and as you read, he really loves beer, so he tried to find his favorites so a suitable thank you gift could be presented.
I'd like to know more about the Linux hardware in the bag, and the Kickstarter project, but I'm sure more details will come out in time.

this means maybe michael close phoronix forever and start developing for valve.

Originally posted by Michael View PostI think I mentioned it in the first article that Gabe basically only would let me publicly confirm the Steam Linux client / Source Engine for Linux are being worked on but for the other stuff, plus those quick videos/pictures. I wasn't even allowed to photograph the other areas within the Linux cabal aside from that one particular system I'd been playing with that day (I had tried after Gabe said I could take those few photos/video, but then when snapping the first other photo, Rick explicitly said that's not allowed).

Michael, I'm moaning and bitching because I actually like your site and I like the stuff you're reporting on. I really wish you would give this topic a lot more respect because you could have made a much bigger impact that would directly affect your sites traffic, and your income!

Michael: Is Valve collaborating with AMD and nVidia?
I read somewhere they gave intel some software for testing but intel didn't care.
It would be great if this pushes the driver quality (blobs) on Linux.*
Is this something you can share with us?
*) I'm using the AMD open-source stack right now but I guess I have to switch to the proprietary ones
if Steam/Source will be released on Linux (unless it takes them another 3 years or so...).Last edited by entropy; 28 April 2012, 04:39 PM.
