Games That Run On Porteus

Post#1 by jimwg » 08 Oct 2014, 12:49

Greetings!

Are there any MMO games that will run on Porteus? I've been told since Porteus works differently than Mint or Ubuntu that there might be slim pickings for it in the games department. Goggling or looking up Steam listings for Porteus-friendly games are useless. Any hints please!

Hi jimwg,

Try Steam client from freestyler 64 bit repo:-
http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php? ... ent#p22034

Register for an account on Steam. You should be able to get some MMO on there as well.

If you are on 32 bit maybe you can search in i486 section.
