The official issue tracking repository for Valve's Steam client on Linux, primarily used to report and triage bugs in the Steam for Linux beta and stable client. It is not source code for the client itself but the canonical place for Linux Steam bug reports and workarounds.

Use cases

  • report a bug where the Steam client crashes on Ubuntu
  • find workarounds for Steam not launching on my Linux distribution
  • check if a Steam Linux client issue is already known
  • track fixes for Steam client problems on Linux
  • report graphics driver issues with Steam games on Linux
  • follow Steam for Linux beta announcements and known issues

When to choose

  • you are a Linux user experiencing problems with the Steam client itself
  • you want to search or file official bug reports for Steam on Linux
  • you need installation requirements and supported distribution info for Steam on Linux

When to avoid

  • you want the Steam client source code - it is not open source
  • you have issues with specific games, which belong in separate per-game repositories
  • you need a general Linux gaming platform outside of Steam
