i cant run Steam on Ubuntu linux
i do install with console

start steam, it runs its self updater, and close
and that was it

no chance to start it, no error message, just nothing

(same is for google chrome)

someone has any experience with that?

Never used Steam on Linux desktops. A common source of error in my very early days of Linux was to install things using sudo when I shouldn't have used sudo. Messed up a lot haha.
