Maybe it's offtopic but my guess about Half-Life 2 is that it's base graphics engine Source for now only has Direct3D support, not OpenGL. However, I hope they will port also this game to OS X, so they will create OpenGL support and from there it is rather easy to port this game to Linux. And I don't think that Valve would be against Linux port - of coarse, they won't this because it could be done by other companies - but we still have to wait for such things to happen. But for now, AFAIKAS (Know and Saw) Half-Life 2 runs under Cedega (that TransGaming thingy) officially - as one colegue rushed trough demo using Cedega and our Debian-based tweaked distro. > but: less linux gamers, less games ported to linux :'( > there is the ut series, and all stuff from id. but no halflife 2 > > -tom
