Although I’ve been using Linux since 1995; I only recently had the funds to get a good gaming system. Normally I’d be running Slackware, but there’s a couple of drivers that work under 12.10 that I’d rather play games than try to get it working.
System76 Bonobo Extreme
CPU: Core i7 3630QM @ 2.4GHz x 8
RAM: 16GB DDR3
GPU: GeForce GTX 670MX 3GB RAM
Driver: Nvidia-319.23
OS: Ubuntu 12.10 64bit / Slackware 14 64bit
HD: 2 x 1TB, 1 x 500GB, 1 x eSATA 1TB
Issues:
Only issue I’ve had with Steam is where Ubuntu keeps it’s 32bit drivers (/usr/lib32) which I fixed by editing the /usr/bin/steam file and adding:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib32/nvidia-319:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
although I’m still having issues with getting Shatter to run.
