So, you found evidence of it, even got it running, but all over unofficial
channels. This is about as official as a table is an banana.

Huh? Games? On _my_ Linux?

Unix was one of the first operation systems to come with games out of the box.
Linux proudly follows that tradition.

That may be true but Linux still sucks as a gaming platform. That’s just how
it is and facing up to that reality might help.

Jach
Because of lack of professional quality games, lack of external controller
drivers (not sure how common this is), lack of DirectX? Please be more
specific with its suckiness, since it seems like you think the problem is some
inherent issue with Linux itself, and I'm not aware of anyone denying those
few problems I listed. I'm not sure I'll buy the lack of users willing to pay
money, but that's not a problem with the platform anyway.
