Porting Osmos to Linux: A Post-Mortem (part 1/3)

,----[ Quote ]
| A couple of weeks ago, we announced the 
| release of Osmos on Linux. Even before I 
| had finished the port, we had been invited 
| by a few members of the Linux community to 
| do a post-mortem on our experiences. We 
| were asked, âWhat would have made the port 
| easier?â It was pointed out to us that 
| while some indie developer forays into 
| Linux had resulted in drama (viz. John 
| Blowâs inquiries into Linux back in August 
| 2008 as he was considering porting Braid 
| to Linux), it was hoped that more indies 
| would âtake the plungeâ and share their 
| experiences with the Linux community, to 
| work together towards developing Linux 
| into a platform for gaming.

Quake-Live Follow-Up: Strategy Observations 

,----[ Quote ]
| For those of you bored out of your minds 
| at this, I'll get back to my regular 
| content eventually. But hey, it is 
| sometimes also important to show that, 
| yes, Linux can be an enjoyable gaming 
| platform, and Linux geeks can enjoy 
| ourselves like normal human beings once in 
| a while.

ioquake3 Engine Running On Nokia N900

,----[ Quote ]
| The Nokia N900 mobile computer may just have
| a 3.5-inch display and a 600MHz ARM Cortex-A8
| processor, but it does have a PowerVR SGX
| graphics processor that is capable of
| providing OpenGL ES 2.0 support, albeit
| through a binary-only driver. While this
| hardware is not much, it is enough for some
| gaming even with the ioquake3 engine. The
| ioquake3 engine, which is the free software
| project founded around the open-sourced id
| Tech 3 engine, is used by games like World of
| Padman, Tremulous, Urban Terror, and other
| free software games. Now thanks to the world
| of Oliver McFadden, an ioquake3 port is
| running -- and running quite well -- on
| Nokia's N900.
