Why would the Gamer Mode on Linux be unnecessary?
With the release of Steam for Linux and the pending release of SteamOS which is Linux based it might be a good idea to add the Gamer Mode to the ESET Linux Antivirus...

Google even has there own custom version of Linux called Goobuntu that is based on Ubuntu...

And of course many individuals like myself have switched to Linux because of the Windows 8 FUBAR.
There may not be any Known Viruses in the wild that affect Linux but it is nice to have a piece of mind plus there are things that Linux users still might need protection from such as Boot Sector Viruses, Browser Flash & Java Exploits.
And any Windows or Mac OS viruses that cross a Linux users path wont be accidentally passed on even though those type of Viruses wont affect a Linux system.
I think it is very necessary for ESET to update and improve the Antivirus technology and features for Linux users.
