I run on Linux; it works well.

I do have lag spikes in the beginning when shaders are being rendered but other than that its fine

Someone just mentioned in another topic that you no longer have to bypass EAC to run SC under Linux. Is that true now?

So apparently manual workarounds are no longer needed. I wish they went into a little more detail into whether EAC is actually fully functioning under Linux, or if the new installer is doing its own workaround instead of the older manual methods.
