Edvard:
It runs for me as of the last iteration, but only up to a point. After signing in it tells me that my video driver (open-source Radeon driver; the official Catalyst and Crimson drivers give me no love at all...) doesn't support a high enough version of OpenGL. :-\
One of these days I'll snap up an affordable nVidia card and see how that goes.
Deozaan:
It may be useful for you to peruse the relevant forum. Maybe others have experienced the same issue and somehow found a solution that doesn't require buying a new GPU.
Deozaan:
Neat! Once again the Linux build is just a day behind the regular releases:
Unity announced/released Unity 5.3.4 and an open Beta 5.4 yesterday, and today both are available to test on Linux.
Build #2016031601
This one's a double feature!
Yesterday at GDC, we announced public beta access for Unity 5.4, and you won't be left out!
