Recently on our forums, Frank Earl (who goes by the synonym
Svartalf), has been seeking the input of Linux gamers as to what games
they would like to see ported to Linux. Frank has been working for Linux
Game Publishing for a few years porting various titles to Linux and has
done work independently on bringing new software from Windows to Linux.
Frank was overwhelmed by the response on our forums and it has even led
to new Linux games with many other possible ports being looked into. To
get his view as where Linux gaming is currently at, he has answered a
few of our questions about Linux game porting, Linux gaming in general,
and other questions that may be of interest to gamers and Linux
enthusiasts.
