SteamOS 2.0 Preview,基于Debian的Linux发行
SteamOS是一份基于Debian的Linux发行,它被设计为运行Valve的Steam和Steam游戏。它也提供一份桌面(GNOME)模式,能够运行常规的Linux应用程序。除了以稳定的Debian作为基础之外,SteamOS还拥有各种各样的第三方驱动及更新了的图形栈,一份更加新的带有长期支持的Linux内核,以及一份定制的图形组合器,以提供Steam、Steam游戏、SteamOS系统之间的无缝转换。其基础操作系统是开放源码软件,但Steam客户端是私有的。

Valve is pleased to announce the preview of the next SteamOS release, codenamed "brewmaster" and based on the latest Debian 8.1 stable release.
Please note that this is a very early preview release and we have done only limited hardware compatibility and functional testing. We are releasing this early to get feedback from the community. You should not install brewmaster on any machine containing data you are not prepared to lose completely.
Although there are a lot of changes under the covers, the overall functionality and experience of brewmaster is the same as alchemist and most of the SteamOS FAQ applies to both releases.
On the second boot of the installation process, AMD systems will display an "Oh No! Something has gone wrong" screen. Leave it alone and installation will continue normally.
* Desktop mode on AMD systems does not work, you will just get an "Oh No! Something has gone wrong" screen.
