counter strike source with steam on linux.
I changed operating system lately, from windows vista to linux fedora core 7.
I wouldn’t consider this if there would be no chance to install my favourite game on it
, but i found few articles and noticed some good changes from time i last installed such a system with graphical innterface
Instalation went smooth, than few updates, few more independent packages and proper graphic drivers. i got lucky because i had just right drivers for new kernel for my nvidia
OK, it’s time for wine
downloading and installing was easy like hell
no ./configure make and make install <jupi>, just with yum (packages installer / manager) install wine. It downloded proper wersion for my kernel and installed it by itself so i could drink coffe and watch
. Hell, there was no such thing on red hat 7.2
.
After that i checked if it works…bingo
With gnome there were some lags on few games… but on KDE everything went smooth and surprisingly fast. i used this addres to install css with steam and it works perfeclty, performance loss is at about 10% so i cant complain
The game looks pretty well, maybe except water :). Mouse is a little bit laggy to, but i must say linux is going the right way to get better.
Oh, and i installed and configured Compiz Fusion with Emerald Theme Manager and i must say that vista sucks
I’ll put some pictures later on.
