Linux Status: BROKEN

hahahaha games, nobody took your offer because nobody cares.

>>52624844
$100 for some neckbeard to spend 5 minutes configuring whatever horseshit? Sounds to me like the application itself matters not. League or OpenOffice, $100 is $100.

I never asked for anybody to care. I just presented the following point: Linux does not run the applications consumers demand, and so it will never attain any appreciable desktop market share.

>>52624873
League is for middle school fags get off g

>>52624892

Linux is for neckbeards with nothing but time to waste on a buggy incomplete system. Get off /earth/.

Nice pasta but league has worked perfectly in wine for years.

>>52624809
This post reeks of /v/. Why is it here? So you can't run your shit game on another OS that it was developed for. Better blame the other OS for it and do it on 4chan. Good thinking, that should solve it.

>And don't give me that "there's paid support if you look for it" bullshit. I even offered over 1,500 people $100 to anybody who could get it working. No takers. And do you honestly think Red Hat will support League? HA!
I don't even know what this was. Are you trying to hire "some neckbeard" to fix it for you even when they have nothing to do with the developing company? That's not support. If he had anything to do with the company then it would be supported. Now it's just hacking.

>>52624949
Those systems are servers, right? Running server applications, like a web server, storage server, a DNS server, maybe even a virtualization... server?

How many desktops do you oversee, that run desktop Linux?

>>52624970
Servers, yes. We also have a fleet of about 60 workstations running CentOS.

>>52624969

I was hopefully looking for someone like >>52624920

who is absolutely, positively, convinced that League works 100% no problems whatsoever on this trash heap you call an operating system.

And prove him wrong.

>>52624991
And how many of those would you say run Windows applications in WINE, CodeWeavers, or PlayOnLinux?

>>52625024
They don't. This is a scientific research facility, they only use the workstations for analytical and documentation tools.

>>52625054
The perfect environment for Linux!

Consumers, on the other hand... They actually want to use their computers.

>>52625077
I run GNU/Linux on my desktop at home.
Sure, I might not play LoL, but I can play other games just fine (ie. DOTA2, Metro 2033, etc.).

I've never encountered a problem with GNU/Linux on the desktop that didn't take more than 5 minutes of Google-fu to fix.

>>52625007
He might use or know someone who uses Linux to play it and it works perfectly. It's pretty fucking unlikely that you both have the same distro, same hardware and same drivers. You might not even have the same version of WINE. If it doesn't work in your case it's not a checkmate for you to yell how it can't possibly work on anyone's machine. That's why developers need to support things, so the range gets bigger.

Use Linux For web browsing, grey hat, black hat and anything you dont want the NSA to be arresting you for.

Use windows for videogames and white hat areas'

Run 2 computers man,
simple solution.

Get a console and use Linux for its real purpose - productivity.

If you've been using Linux for 5+ years yet are still willing to switch to Windows over a single game breaking you probably never realized why Linux is better in the first place.

>>52625216

Sure you did.
What certifications do you have?

>>52625240
Linux can handle simple video games, it can even handle complex video games. There's even a chance that it runs video games that were never made for it.

If you think Linux can't handle actual workload you should educate yourself on supercomputer top list and what OS they run. Linux has practically no limits when you actually want to do something with your hardware. The only limits come from developers. You can ask developers to support Linux or create a similar game for Linux. Linux isn't handcuffing you.

>>52625296

>>52624844
He's right, though.

If you want to interoperate with the real world, sooner or later linux will betray you.

This entire thread is a wonderful example of what the open source community calls "community support", where you are chastised for not searching. When you prove that you did search, you are chastised for daring to run an application not blessed personally by RMS. When you point out that this is ridiculous, you're simply assumed to be unintelligent for not being willing to debug the fucking kernel to run a video game you play when you get off work to fucking unwind.

If the computer is for windows gaming, then Linux is terrible choice.
If the computer is for anything else, then windows is a terrible choice.
I have a feeling you want to plays windows games.

Go directly to jail. Do not install gentoo. Do not collect $200.

>Community support for "Waah my game isn't working, I will give no details! Linux sucks you guys!"
Go rub your crystal ball and see how to fix that. Except that OP didn't ask for it to be fixed, it was just a blog post about video games. What was the support for, again? GPU passthrough and dual booting was still mentioned as a tip from /g/ anons. Woah, that really makes you look like a moron. Good thing you are anonymous.

>>52625632
>He's being chastised for writing off an entire OS because an instance of WINE isn't behaving how he wants.

Linux is brittle as fuck

>>52625653
One. One Windows video game. The rest all have Linux binaries.

So your solution is to duct tape some VM fuckery or heaven forbid dual boot for one game?

Typical Linux engineer solution. "it works but you gotta configure this and tweak that and download this and sacrifice that to this daemon with that pentagram"

>>52625689
>One. One Windows video game. The rest all have Linux binaries.
There is only one game remaining that lacks a Linux binary? Saints be praised!

>So your solution is to duct tape some VM fuckery or heaven forbid dual boot for one game?
>Typical Linux engineer solution. "it works but you gotta configure this and tweak that and download this and sacrifice that to this daemon with that pentagram"
It is more insidious than that. VGA passthrough is so painful and hackery, that by the time you get it running, the desire for video games will have passed.

Why do my games go at 5 fps on Linux and like 120 FPS in Windows? I have a GTX 980.

>>52625689
Your options for playing a Windows-only game:

1. Try to run it in Linux like the rest of your software and hope it works anyway, even though it's Windows-only

2. Install Windows on dual boot for that one game

3. Install Windows on VM for that one game

4. Wipe everything and replace it with Windows for that one game

5. Stop playing that one game

BONUS OPTION: Ask developers if they could make a Linux version of that one game

>>52624809
Why are you expecting a Windows game to work on Linux, like why is something not made for Linux supposed to be guaranteed to run through Wine. Linux does what it's supposed to do, and it does it really well. If LoL is so important, then go ahead and use Windows, but don't act like it's your OS's fault that something non-native doesn't run. If LoL had a Linux port, it'd run fine.

If you're trying to run Windows programs on Linux, then you should probably reevaluate the reason you're using Linux in the first place.

>>52627725
This is the exact same logic as op.

Sure, Linux doesn't have the support of the game industry.

More of a circle, IMO.
>game companies see making games for Linux is too much hassle without alot of benefit, so they make for windows, and maybe os x.
>people see games are being made for windows so they use windows because more developers make for windows.

Fortunetly, Valve is trying to break that circle by introducing Steam to Linux. If they succeed, and the Linux community supports this, developers might consider building to Linux as well.

Just needs a bit of time.

So valuable you spend it shitposting on /g/ because you don't want to use an operating system that is not designed for someone like you to use in the first place.

Why don't Riot learn from fucking blizzard? Every game of theirs work flawlessly on wine, and LoL works like a piece of shit. Even if they ever port LoL to linux, I'm 100% sure it'll be a fucking wrapper.

>>52629689
Disagree, I have been using all three of them for many many years, they're all the fucking same.

Most adobe products don't work. Photoshop just barely works, but it's slow as hell, and crashes a lot. It's a nightmare to setup too. And 64 bit doesn't work.

Wine is crap except for older software or certain software which isn't really integrated with other software, or with windows itself.

Nothing professional works with wine. Case in point: Adobe CC. CS6 collection (which is getting quite old, and many artists/clients don't use it anymore) doesn't even work--apart from a very flaky photoshop 32bit.

I could go on and on, but it's not like anyone in here actually has a job producing actual real world tangible things.

>>52629721
At least you're smarter than OP and you blame Adobe for not supporting something. I don't get what goes on in his mind.

>>52629750

Diablo 3 has some known issues (e.g., cursor can fuck up for nvidia users on multi-monitor setup and HotS is known to have horrendous frame rate on some setups regardless of settings, but Blizzard does pretty good.

SC2, WoW, HS and their old games play really well with no extra config.

>>52629758
I do and I avoid Photoshop like the plague. It is yet another tool that corporations use to stifle individual artists and seek out a portion of their profits.

>>52629762
Oh, OP is a retard for sure.
Last time I checked Wine did not provide any warranties.

Linux on the desktop is about 10 years behind.

Systemd copy of (mac) launchd
Wayland compositos copy of DisplayPS, or more recently Quartz.
Audio (all of it) is crap. OSX and Windows have worked correctly with audio forever, including auto-switching audio out.
GUI tools are still a joke. Pinning OOP on top of C in gnome--just wow, shit, MUI on amiga was doing that 20 years ago. QT at least is semi modern, although everyone seems to think its somehow less desirable than gnome/etc.

And so on. It's a joke, but I still use linux because it's open.

Haiku and AROS have features that linux STILL doesn't have (that are stable).

For instance MUI/Zune as a unified system API in AROS, BeAPI in the case of haiku, multithreading gui apps as a first class feature, not a bolt-on, GUI as a first-class UI, not a bolt-on and so on and so forth. Not to mention low latency audio/video etc.

Don't even get me started on X11/Xorg/xlib and all the new bolt-ons. And wayland/compositors...yeah. A fucking joke.

Want proof? Get some crappy old G4 mac mini and run MorphOS on it. It's got features that are more than 20 years old that STILL make linux loook like a joke. A crappy G4 a 1ghz outperforms the audio/video of linux on a modern system. Not to mention all the features it has over linux as a desktop. But that would require some investigation on your parts, you linux zealot children. Get some fucking perspective.

"Why don't more people use Windows? You can even run Linux applications in Cygwin! Even video games! You're out of excuses, use Windows!"

I've been a die-hard Windows fan since 2009. And I'm going back to Linux.

The latest League update 100% broke compatibility with Cygwin and Windows. Starting a game yields absolutely nothing. Clicking the system tray icon, even less than a second after (re)launching the game, yields a 'game abandoned' screen, offering to launch into... nothingness.

Really stable shit you got here, folks. Awesome operating system. Absolutely astounding how stable and usable it is.

And don't give me that "there's paid support if you look for it" bullshit. I even offered over 1,500 people $100 to anybody who could get it working. No takers. And do you honestly think Microsoft will support League? HA!

Enjoy your market share. Peace.

Even most Linuxfags will tell you you're stupid for doing that.
Either run Windows applications in a VM or dual boot, but otherwise accept the fact that you are using shitty hacks to get software to run in conditions it wasn't designed for and whatever associated risks come with that.

>>52624809
i don't know what the fuck "league" is, but this sounds like it's the league-people's fault. from what i gathered in this thread there's also a native linux variant called dota, which wikipedia tells me was there first anyway, so why not play the original (if that is indeed the case, as i said i'm completely oblivious to any of this)?

so a game made for windows suddenly broke compatibility with wine and now you are pissed?

>>52632245

Of course my ancient nVidia 7900GS wasn't doing me any favors either...

You should probably just stop playing league op. Its a shit game with an even worse community and you'll come out a better person by not playing it.

Depends on where you live but 60k a year is great. If you're in a shitty city no amount of money can make that better. But if you're in a nice rural or even suburban area 60k can get you a nice house in a nice area without issues.

So your saying some windows game software broke when run on linux? Man its like maybe it shouldn't be written for windows in the first place then you wouldn't have to use wine to emulate bullshit software.

>>52633059
i want this, but m mobo doesnt suport it. Im saving money for an upgrade.

Translation

"I am a strawman! This never happened! I am making a ridiculous statement based on my preconceived notions of how Linux was going to be!"

I've had Ubuntu installed on a separate partition which I never use to feel like a 1337 h4x0r since 2009. And I've never stopped using Windows because of muh video games.

A single update gave me an excuse to remove Linux from my computer, and I'm going to justify my opinion by making a thread about how you also shouldn't use Linux based on my needs. I'm from /v/ by the way, here's my problem, please be my tech support and I'll consider gracing Linux with my presence.

Even though it's used on servers around the world, the ISS, the Darpa robotics challenge, and hollywood rendering for its stability, clearly it's unstable because of a single update that breaks software that I personally use and don't know how to fix.

And don't give me that "there's paid support if you look for it" bullshit. I don't even know how that works. No brains. And do you honestly think I know the difference between an industrial grade Operating System with experimental desktop support and a system I should actually be using for my purposes? HA!

Enjoy your appeal to popularity. I'm saying goodbye but I'm not leaving this thread because I'm butthurt.

Linux has more zero days than both osx and Windows. The idea that linux is inherently secure more than windows is a myth.

>>52633711
>Linux has more zero days than both osx and Windows.
Of course it does.
Within the Linux kerlen and a working GNU/Linux distribution, backdoors are considered security bugs.

On Windows and OSX, backdoors are considered privileged access and not bugs.

Therefore Linux having more 'bugs' is understandable.

Reboot the box. Message me in game, Soraka Boat, I'll take my $100, and I'll tell you exactly why it happened. Spoiler: You were right. You just don't know why.

>>52634401
Nah, I'm just feeling that kind of evil today. And maybe a little pissed he didn't try a reboot first.

If you have been using linux since 2009, why didn't you convince people to play HoN instead of leage of legends?
It had linux support from the start, clearly better graphics and gameplay if you are into dota derivatives.
Or dota 2 which also work on linux although it came out a lot later.
3/4 of the dota clones work without problems, why did you choose the one that didn't work?

>>52625077
which is why windows and osx exist. good job, you're the typical windows consumer and have no use for linux. what a special person

>>52634568
Did you ever consider that people tend to make that selection based on what their friends already play? I know I did.

Only thing I never got around to fixing was the latency from the emulated audio. I just bought a recent video card, so I'll probably start screwing with it again.

>>52634600
My friends want to play games with me.
HoN and LoL came out around the same time. We quickly talked about which to go for and playing a game on both platforms, HoN was a clear win.
It did cost $10 dollars at the time but it was just more fun. and it worked on all machines.

yeah about that kid. if you don't understand what wine is, what it's based on and how it works and then complaining that linux is shit, just means that you are a dumb nigger-pseudo-neckbeard-jew

>>52633175
Lmfao, please be trolling. Go read his reddit post about how it's set up + his follow up post on a more recent guide.

>>52634568
Not OP, but I started playing LoL in beta and there were no similar games available (discounting DOTA, but the WC3 player base was waning).
When HoN finally came out, it was not free-to-play and DOTA2 was even later to the game.
Due to the above, all my habits formed around LoL.
I suppose I should check out HoN since Soraka keeps getting pushed further from healer support, but I don't play games much anymore.

>>52624809

>>52634751
Also not OP. You're making quite a few assumptions. Like many others (not here, but others), I have a day job. I'll just let that sink in for a moment. What this means is, of course I don't play for the highest competitive prizes, because I'm not a fucking South Korean autistic fucktard whose only marketable skill is League of Legends. It's just a game I play when I get off work to spend time with people whose company I enjoy, and that includes my champion.

Play Heroes of Newerth, DoTA 2, or Heroes of the Storm instead.

LoL is the korean mmorpg of MOBAs and its garbage.

>>52634835
I haven't played HoN in a long time but they made it free to play and the quality went down.
Back when it was free to play it didn't cost that much (I think it was $30 and went to sale really often to be $10)
