Dear Sirs, let me first thank you very much for your awesome job with the new linux-c6 ports. With those I am now able to run e.g. linux-doom3 using linux-c6-dri-compat with my Radeon HD 4850, so no need to buy an nvidia-card anymore! Now that thanks to your great job 3D-acceleration is provided for a linux environment for Radeon cards, it would be nice to be able to use the linux-steam client for a growing number of games. The file is provided as a .deb package for Ubunu, but even unpacking the package where in the end you find a file called "steam.sh" it won't install executing './steam.sh' from a command promt. Error "Unknown operating system" is the result. Is there a way to install the linux steam client somehow? Or could you maybe port it so that it installs? Another question: Is there something like mesa-demos (glxinfo) where you can learn what OpenGL-Version you are running in the linux-environment? Best regards, Werner Lehmann
