Hello ! It’s been months since I’ve last posted on LGN, and it wasn’t because I didn’t have any news to post about. I’ve been fired from my job as a Linux/Windows Sysadmin because frankly – there was almost no work for me there. Since that time I’ve been searching for a suitable job, with […]

Frankly I wasn’t sure LGN would get to this point, but after several domain and hosting changes we survived 3 years today ! LGN tried to put a few contests over the years but unfortunately they failed. Maybe I should setup something easier next time… I’ve been very open regarding LGN and as with last […]

LGN, Uniqueness And News On Other Websites.

As you may know, (if you are a regular reader) LGN tries to provide unique news about GNU/Linux gaming that weren’t published on other English “speaking” websites first. So LGN often passes on news that were published before as they are no longer “unique”. (even if sometimes the news reached LGN first but were yet […]

Hello ! The regular visitors of LGN must be wondering why there are no news lately…is the website dead ? Well, it’s far from dead, in fact I have several new games in development to write about. But my personal life has taken it’s toll … about a week ago the company I have worked […]

LGN Theme – Still Undecided

As you see now (01/09/2010), LGN’s theme has been changed to the temporary http://LinuxGamingNews.wordpress.com theme, I want to give it another shoot and see if you like it. The few things I didn’t like about the old “dark” theme is that when I highlight things in bold, the changes barley seen, the text isn’t clear […]

LGN Moved To A New Server !

Hello ! Finally LGN found a new home under the roof of lgdb.org . Pheonton has offered us this opportunity to regain the wordpress freedom that LGN missed. If something would happen to this server LGN could always move back – but as we now have an official domain names : http://www.linuxgamingnews.org and http://www.linuxgamingnews.net you […]

Hello All ! Last time I wrote that LGN is moved from the Linux-Hardcore server to the original wordpress.com server. This is not the best solution as wordpress.com offers much less features then if I would install the FOSS wordpress on a hosted server – but it’s free hosting and fine for now. If someone […]

And The Winner Is…

About a month ago LGN had it’s second Contest – best wordpress theme for the website. After too much time without a single submission I thought that maybe, just maybe it was the modest prize that didn’t give enough motivation for the people to work on the theme, so Wupra offered an additional prize for […]

Two weeks ago I’ve started the LGN Theme contest, but so far there wasn’t even one submission. I would like to think that you are working hard and pushing the limits to the last day, but there is also the possibility that the prize isn’t good enough. Leszek Sta?czyk from the Polish GNU/Linux game reseller […]

Last month LGN held a contest which frankly was very disappointing. Only one person officially participated and won by default. I suspect that it might be because it’s hard for many people to find GNU/Linux gaming related news, specially those that weren’t yet published on any news website. Yesterday again the LGN daily visits record […]
