    Once CS:S / CS:Go gets ported over, I will switch my main install to Debian (or maybe I'll try something new... suggestions? :), until then, I'll have to stick with Windows on my PC.

    I'd suggest whatever Steam suggests. They seem to have the game developers targeting Ubuntu 12.04.

    I dumped an Ubuntu 12.10 install for a 12.04 due to the games looking for older libraries.

    Away from linux box at the moment, but yep, the .deb file won't run. If I remember, something else like >12.04 Ubuntu.

    Will check it when I get home, and let you know.

    Just updated, and run the .bed again. Installed fine.

    Seems to be graphical issues when I full screen the window though.

    Only have TF2 in my playlist that will work on steam, D/Ling now to try it out.

    I use a Docky, centre bottom position. Can't give up my panel though, and it kinda overlaps. Just thought about moving the panel to a different position. :o Bit embarrassed I didn't think of it before now!

    I tried to run serious Sam last night but upon starting it it said it couldn't verify my drivers. I continued anyway to horrendous play back. I had my graphics card turned on but i didn't optirun the game. Could this be the issue?
