North Bay Linux Users’ Group

general meeting

SteamOS

When: Tue April 08, 2014 07:30 PM to 09:00 PM

Speaker: Allan Cecil

Location: O'Reilly Media

I’ll be firing up my SteamOS box (built from various pieces I cobbled together) and demonstrating this distribution based on Debian Wheezy that’s designed for a 10-foot experience, i.e. sitting on a couch. I’ll be showing how Valve configured the OS and how XBMC and even Netflix support can be added. I’m almost positive there will be some 4-player local co-op going on by the end of the meeting. In other words, expect a live demo—there’s no need for slides for this presentation! :)
