Re: [hlds_linux] Huge disconnects due to steam auth tickets?
I believe most of the problem was because Steam client took too much CPU and since the auth ticket has a time window to be sent and received the lack of CPU made it impossible to be sent in time and the steam server would UN-authenticate you and the game server would eventually kick you. This I believe, has been fixed, but perhaps (being VALVe and all) the bug was re-introduced in some internal changes they might have done.

Then a AMD 1045T shouldn't have the issue correct when it has a load of 0.00, right? Yet it still happens.
