• Anyone play on Linux via Steam Proton? Game not finding joystick, need advice

  If this computer is purely for gaming, Steam OS might be a good option. However I don't know how easy it is to run other gaming software on it like Lutris, if that's a requirement. Should be possible, just haven't tried it. - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago

  Most importantly, SteamOS only supports a certain set of hardware (you can read more in our FAQ). We will add support for newer hardware over time, but we have no plans to add more support for older hardware. - Source: Reddit / 2 months ago

• Fixed It

  I could have sworn it was Debian 8 Jessie. Guess Google hated me more than I thought. The only reason I thought the Aerosmith song was Jessie was that it gave me a did you mean Jessie when I typed Janie earlier today when I tried to link the song to someone. And when they didn't know what song I was talking about when I linked it they replied in a way that made me think that I was feeling the Mandala Effect. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago

  I haven't really been seeing people talking about this (https://store.steampowered.com/steamos/) but it's saying its officially available. I ended up building a mini gaming pc and was deciding on which distro to use in the meantime when I stumbled on this. I cant seem to get the usb to show in my bios after following the instructions. Has anyone else tried this yet? - Source: Reddit / 6 months ago

• The game wasn't loading in terrain and then this message popped up. What does it mean?
