hm.. search field shows Skyrim as compatible with Linux though Bronze ranked.

"However, Bronze applications generally have enough bugs that we recommend that our customers use them with caution."

I love the game.. Christmas I'll be coming up on a year and still going strong. But wow is that a bit of an understatement. Two lockups last night in two hours of gaming.. but no CTDs so I guess that's something. Bless Bethesda for doing such a detailed open world.. just wish they'd designed the engine and mod interface to both fail gracefully.
