![]() That being said, IMO as a player, this is invasive as hell, and you should not be crawling through my flash drives, identifying my mouse, killing LogitechMacroSoftware.exe, etc. Some of the people behind these also release vaguely-useful legal tools signed with the same certificates to get a large install base for them so they don't stick out. Higher end cheats cost enough to offset this, and there might be less than 5-6 people using a particular certificate. On top of that, you effectively have to maintain a whitelist of acceptable drivers, because cheat vendors are registering limited companies by the thousands (only $20 in the UK), getting an EV/codesigning cert, and signing their own drivers. There are some games that have caused machines to overheat by disabling cheat-jumpoffable fan controllers. You now maintain a list of potentially vulnerable drivers that can be used as a jumping off point (such as virtually every motherboard RGB or fan control system), and ban users that have these or hard-disable them at boot. I'm going to point out that if you want to go down this route, it is insufficient to just check that the base drivers are untampered with and signed by Microsoft or whatever vendor still. When I run emacs and thunderbird from terminal it told me "command not found" and something along the lines of do you want to install as a snap or with apt? I run the apt commands. I installed another 20.04 on my old laptop from 2006 yesterday because I read that its kernel would finally support again the old ATI X1600 graphic card. BTW, slack has a deb on its download page. I think it's the bare minimum before utterly removing all support for snaps.

My Ubuntu 20.04 tells me this: It also ensures optimal compatibility with every distro out there. The steam runtime is open source and can easily be bootstrspped for any game, even outside of steam. PLEASE test your game with the steam runtime OS thing, not with Ubuntu or a specific distro. ![]() Shout out to Northgard and Deep Rock Galactic (even though it doesn't support Linux natively) for making an awesome cooperative experience that I can have with my friends on Linux.Īlso, for developers making games out there. Heck I'd manually go in and press a button certifying that I'm a Linux player and I understand that I won't have access to every portion of the game if that's what they need me to do.īut these limitations have also pushed me to explore more indie, or small publishing games that are multi-player. Or at the very least just restricted PvP game play when Linux was detected. ![]() I really wish companies stopped their draconian policies about Linux gaming. This is especially an issue in PvE heavy games that have only small PvP elements. I seriously don't miss windows anymore.Īt this point I'm not worried about compatibility, but rather shitty game companies banning you the second they figure out you're playing on linux.
