Whenever I click on the steam icon, nothing happens, all I get when running it in terminal is:

loger42@loger42-desktop:~$ steam
Running Steam on ubuntu 15.04 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(0_client)

I had a problem previously with this related to graphics drivers, so I updated my graphics card drivers, and now this is all that I see in the terminal when I run steam. Before I installed the new drivers, the only other thing that appeared in the terminal was about missing drivers, such as nouveau and swrast.

I am running Ubuntu 15.04 64-bit

My hardware specs are:

  • AMD 3.4Ghz processor

  • NVIDIA GeForce 8400GS graphics card

  • ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 motherboard

  • 4GB Dualstick memory

  • 1TB WD Blue hard disk (Windows installation)

  • 160GB (unkown brand) hard disk (Ubuntu installation)

  • ATX power source

Well, I used

sudo apt-get install ia32-libs

and it didn't seem to work, but when I ran steam, it started up. I have no idea how trying to install a package that it said didn't exist worked, but apparently it does.
