Portal 2 Beta Released For Linux

Posted by Soulskill on from the now-you're-thinking-with-betaportals dept.

jones_supa writes "Yesterday Portal 2, a Source-based game that has been missing a Linux version, got a public beta release. The Steam game product page doesn't yet say the game supports Linux. To access the beta for Linux, right-click the game in Steam, select Properties and go to the Betas tab. Valve hasn't published the Linux system requirements for Portal 2 yet, but WebUpd8 tested it using Intel HD 3000 graphics under Ubuntu and it worked pretty well."

    Portal 2 crashes on my Windows system whenever I load the Workshop menu. I'm hoping for better stability under Linux.

    Linux is stable enough for my servers, so why wouldn't it be stable for my games, too?
