My previous post might have been a bit misleading as Linux is not perfect and it isn’t without its’ hiccups. The fact that the Linux OS has not yet become large enough to get support from most hardware manufacturer’s and game developer’s is Linux’s biggest problem at the moment. This doesn’t mean that there’s absolutely no official hardware and software support. If you have a piece of hardware that is intended to be used by business’s you might even have an official driver released by the manufacturer as Linux is somewhat popular with big business. And there are a handful of commercial games available for Linux that are natively supported. None the less, official hardware and game support is far and between, but luckily home grown support is as big as ever.
