Prey is listed with issues 78 and 81 as affecting it, which are these:
Now after deleting libgcc_s.so and...
There is no lib32/dri directory, and I don't think that method will fix the problem. When I launch the game with the LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose option, this is the relevant part that's changed:

Yes, I definitely have 3D acceleration. Xonotic, Team Fortress 2, Half-Life and Red Eclipse amongst others work. I'm using the open source drivers at the moment, but there's no reason why the game...
Successfully installed Prey, however, when I start the game I get a black screen for a few seconds and then it closes. This is the terminal output I get:

Already have C&C installed via the first decade DVD. Where do I copy the files for OpenRA to find them? Don't want to re-download the games when I already have them on disc...

I've been trying to mod fallout 2 using the sfall mod (http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/Sfall). After installing however, every time I try to launch the game, it gives me a warning to disable...
The master server was taken down due to a "possible issue" apparently:

So I assume that's still the case with no further information....
Latest version of NightSky HD 64 bit doesn't work. It states this:

Even easier fix, particularly if you're not interested in Jamestown anyway:
simply download more recent libstdc++ from ubuntu packages: http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libstdc++6

Seems like the games haven't been properly tested on older distros. Bit.Trip Runner will work on 11.10 for example, but not 11.04 or earlier. They've also admitted they're not final builds - these...
I'm not sure about it not happening ever, considering the half working alpha client that was discovered (and updated during that time) and Gabe talking about Steam on Linux here:
Why wouldn't it be?
Also, client was update today. I can now start Machinarium succesfully!

Liking it so far, and works pretty well. Some small problems for me though are that it crashes whenever I get notified of new games (won't let me click anything so I have to force it to close), and...
Made a (very small) update, adding the example of Ryzom.
