Debian :: Steam Client Updates But Doesn't Open
Jun 25, 2015
I just installed Steam on my Linux machine tonite, following this guide [URL] ....
When I try to get the client going, it just connects to my account, checks for updates, verifyies data, and then starts over. It will keep doing that until I end the program, and never opens so I have access to my games.
I don't know if it is useful or not, but here is a picture I took of terminal I ran steam from (I don't know how to do a screen capture in linux).

I updated steam and it no longer works. When I tried to load it up Wine comes up and then closes. Im pretty sure this has to deal with the new steam interface. But Im not entirely sure. So I would like to know if any one is having issues currently?

I've been using Claws for a long time and I like its filtering capability, however this app is hanging,hogging 100% of the cpu time. the last version was similar, but the latest version hangs after an hour.I've run it in debug mode, and with strace but nothing stands out I'm suspecting that its the way it looks for a pipe used by pulseaudio, which is not installed. It doesn't hang immediately after trying to open the pipe but within a few minutes. I'm not getting any success from the claws group, so time to look for another mail applicationI'm open to suggestions, I've tried Tbird and found the filtering lacking.there is a catch, I need to be able to import the mail from Claws-mail into it.

I am unable to use Steam via Wine. Here is exactly how I have installed Steam (downloaded the sid amd64 .deb from lamaresh.net):
# dpkg -i wine<tab-completed>.deb
# aptitude install lib32nss-mdns wine
$ cd /tmp/
wget http://download.microsoft.com/download/office97pro/fonts/1/w95/en-us/tahoma32.exe

I've been carefully installing and personalizing a Debian 8 "Jessie" 64-bit install on my laptop for the last few days. Played some games, did some downloading and stuff and decided to want to run steam again, as I have done on many Ubuntu installs in the past.
So I followed this guide: [URL] ....
and of course, I read the warnings: Only do this on Jessie or SID, not on Wheezy. So I was in the clear. I thought.
After giving 'aptitude install steam' all hell broke loose. The script starting demolishing/removing almost everything under the KDE shell. Wireless network, apps, even the ability to reboot the system from the GUI were utterly and completely destroyed. After the script ended I had to reboot the system through an alternate CLI shell only to discover X was complete gone.
So I don't think there is anything else I can do now except re-installing the complete system? Bye bye Wesnoth saved games, downloads, etcetera...

I recently switched over to Debian 8 "Jessie" (64-bit Cinnamon flavor) on my Desktop.
250GB SSD
16 GB DDR3 RAM
i7 4790 Processor
AMD Radeon R9 280X
I have been able to play multiple games on Steam without any issues, however I have downloaded Ark: Survival Evolved and am unable to actually play that game in particular. I can log in and get to a point of choosing a server, but after it actually loads to the game(where it starts rendering graphics), the game crashes to the desktop. Below is the readout of the crash from when I loaded Steam via Terminal.
Code: Select all
Signal 11 caught.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/lukasz/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/home/lukasz/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
[Code] ....
I have noticed that the above (zenity:13343): Gtk-WARNING line in terminal is the point at which the game crashes. It would appear that the steam gameoverlayrenderer.so is a separate issue and may be a common occurence in the background that you just don't see.(?)
Things that I have done thus far:
-Verified that the video card is good
-Tried Open-source graphics drivers
-Currently using the AMD 15.9 Proprietary Drivers directly from AMD with Catalyst Control Center.
-Reinstalled "zenity" to ensure that it was not corrupted.
-Verified which Gtk+ versions that I have installed(see below)
Code: Select all
lukasz@Lukasz-Desktop:~$ pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0 gtk+-3.0
2.24.25
3.14.5
Is there a "default" gtk+ version that I have to alter for it to recognize that I have Gtk+ 3.0 installed, or did I miss something somewhere?
My hypothesis:
-It has something to do with 32-bit/64-bit conflictions(Maybe the game? My steam is 64-bit)
-My graphics card may not be supported by Ark: Survival Evolved yet.
-I am missing some libraries each time I have attempted different video drivers.
-Something with steam did not get installed correctly(I have not attempted to uninstall and reinstall it, however other games function correctly)

HeI'm currently having a problem with a Debian 6 server. The server has a subdomain given from the hosting company. On the machine we'll be hosting a domain with a different name from the hosting's. The domain is pointing to the server's IP address but if you try to ping it will not return any replies. If you ping the machine's subdomain it returns ping. At first I though it's a firewall blocking the ICMP but that's not the case. I've installed apache and tried to open the domain from a browser - the result:
1. The subdomain and the IP address works perfect
2. The desired domain doesn't open.
I'm coming from Slackware and most probably I'm missing something. It may be something really little that I'm missing. What may be the problem? Is it coming from debian or there's a firewall blocking the domain?

trying to create a "local network" by directly connecting an IBM Thinkpad with Debian Linux installed on it to an Alix computer running Voyager Linux. I'm following a "how to" I found to create a music server, hence the requirement. My issue is I can't get a static IP address to be configured on the Debian machine.I've trawled the net and have found the instructions about editing the /etc/network/interfaces and have tried to do this. First I tried to get DHCP working so I could connect the Debian machine to the net and this proved successful. I edited the interfaces file to look as follows:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
Then I tried adding a static IP address to the machine. As this is a network purely between two machines I made up the IP addres and used 192.168.0.1 and used a NetMask calculator to give me a NetMask of 255.255.255.254 (I told the calculator there would be 2 machines on the network). I then edited the interfaces file as follows:
# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
[code]....
I re-booted the machine (ifdown eth0 followed by ifup eth0 keeps saying that eth0 hasn't been configured - a problem there that I don't understand), but during boot up time it failed to assign the Static IP address to eth0 and made me go into SU mode. To fix it I simply replaced the interface file with the static IP inputs with the file that had the DHCP entries (I'd made a copy of the DHCP file), and re-started the machine. Everthing came up fine. So the first question is how do I get a static IP address to be assigned to eth0 such that whenever I shut down and restart the machine the static IP address is always loaded?
The second question is around creating the network via the cross over cable. From what I've found via Google, all I should have to do is create a static IP address on the Debian machine and a static IP address on the Voyager machine. Once they're connected by the cross over cable they should see each other. Is that correct, or do I have to do anything else?

Ok For some reason I open my ports in security and firewall. I open ssh and other ports and port 7001 for example but when I go to check to see if they are open or try to connect to them. It shows that they are still closed. I am using - [URL] Also yes my ports are open on my router. I know my router works fine with opening ports because I have shoutcast setup on another computer with xp that is currently running. I am willing to pay for who can ever get this fixed for me...
I open the ports in graphical mode.

The open Office installation on Netbook Remix is too much for an Eeepc 701 (4gb), so, as you do, I uninstalled it and replaced it with Abiword/Gnumeric, but I keep receiving large-sized updates for Open Office! I don't need them (or in fact the CUPS updates either), but I don't know how to stop them from being rather forcefully offered each day.

Recently I've updated my small file server at home (Ubuntu 9.10) (Linux ubuntu 2.6.31-16-generic) and after I restarted my system No Ports where open anymore. I use ssh, vsftpd, apache2 and samba ... nothing start after reboot, I have to start it manually. I don't know what happened and if is it even direct result of some updates. I have another machine like that at work and there was no problems after resent updates.

I have 2 laptops connected by a lan cable - from 1 laptop network card to the other. the first laptop is an Asus eeePc that runs a modified version of debian. this one is connected to the internet and i simply want the other one to connect to the internet via the lan cable. the "server" has 2 connections: 1. one for connecting to the internet via a dialup mobile connection (i checked and this connection is shared) 2. the 2nd connection: "Local Area Connection" defined this way:
IP address: 192.168.0.4
subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
+ it is also marked as 'shared'
that's all, no Gateway/DNS/Wins defined
[code]...
my problem is that the client (192.168.0.3) cannot open web pages even if it sees just fine the server's files.

I am looking for a way to track updates or changes to open source software, in other words I want automatic notification when new releases are made.
Is there any single place or easy way to do that? Again, What I am looking for is notification when, for example, firefox ver 3.1.2 is released, or when kde releases 4.4.5, k3b makes a major change, etc, etc, etc.
Anyone have any idea how I could accomplish this?

I just made the switch from windows xp and i am very glad i did. One problem though, I cant get steam games to run right. I have steam installed on an external hard drive and can start it up with wine but whenever i try to run a game, the "starting (game name here)" screen comes up and then disappears and the game doesn't open. I've tried several different tutorials on how to run steam but all they do is tell how to install it.I'm running ubuntu 9.10 x64 if that helps at all.

I am having a bit of a problem with Wine as I cannot remove any of the programs that I have installed in it, namely Steam. Even if I try to uninstall wine via "sudo apt-get remove wine" I can still navigate to Steam through Applications - Wine - Programs - Steam. I don't know what to do. I've even tried the "Uninstall Wine Software" option to get rid of Steam but that has also failed.

Such as eclipse or Googles ChromeIt's appears only for few secounds the program in the task bar, and disappears then. Is there some log file or something like this, there I could see what happens in the start procedure of the firefox program

I got Ubuntu 10.10 installed. Unfortunately, my wireless doesnt work. I'm connected to my router, but web pages wont load.
I thought to myself, maybe Ubuntu needs to update. So I lugged my computer out to the router itself and okugged my computer in. I went into update manager and let it do its thing. It was PAINFULLY slow. I had a less than 100 b/s. But I let it do its thing. After all 200 Mb's were done, which took a couple hours, I rebooted my system. Now, I cant even connect to my wireless and the internet symbol (the wireless bars thing in the top right) is gone.
1) How can I get my wireless to work?
2) How do I get the wireless button back?

I ran Update Manager and installed updates. Now flash video and other things with flash content wont work.
To give one example. I go to a web I use frequently and the following message is displayed at the top: "Additional plug-ins are required to display media on this page"
I click on "install mising plug-ins" and select Flash Player-installer. Bu then it tells me it's already installed! This has only happened since last night when I installed the updates!

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but...well, I just installed Fedora after using Ubuntu for a while, and everything has been going good, except for installing upgrades. When I open the Update Manager, it says there is 399 updates. When I click install, after about ten seconds this pops up:Code:An internal system error has occuredA problem we were not expected has occured. Please report this bug in your distribution bugtracker wth the error description.
More details:

After the last updates (in which there was also the 2.6.35.28 kernel) my audio isn't working anymore. When i open an audio file, it goes foreward with steps like 5 secondos and i can't listen nothing. Videos i can see, but with no audio, and ..... videos go at like 2x speed (and also here no audio). I tried booting with the 2.6.35.27 kernel, but doesn't change anything.

I'm having a problem when browsing shares on other machines. If I hit alt+f2 and enter "smb://server" I get an error saying:
Could not open location 'smb://server/'
No application is registered as handling this file
If I enter "smb://server/share1" everything works fine. Typing the server name without the share name worked fine in Fedora 8, which is what this machine was running before I did a clean install of Fedora 10.
