Gaming on Linux is growing fast right now, and most of that is thanks to Steam. Initially, Steam committed only to the most popular desktop distribution, Ubuntu, but more recently has opened the door to others. So what do you do when you want to game in Linux and you're using something a little less popular — at least, on the desktop? If you're a programmer called GhostSquad57, you rewrite the installer for Debian (http://www.thepowerbase.com/2013/03/gamer-rewrites-valves-steam-installer-for-debian/). GhostSquad57 uploaded his efforts to Github yesterday, and has since reached out to the Linux community.http://linux.slashdot.org/story/13/03/04/1716213/gamer-rewrites-valves-steam-installer-for-debian
