Investigating The Steam Linux Client Continues
,----[ Quote ]
| The Steam Linux client still appears to be
| heavily in development, but the real
| breakthrough came on May Day when members
| within the Phoronix community managed to get
| the Steam Linux client running up to the
| point of showing the log-in window. This
| came after several independent enthusiasts
| were tracing the calls made by the closed-
| source content delivery program and making
| modifications to fix certain issues to get
| the client running further along.
