With Steam support for Linux, there will most likely be a whole lot more games coming out for Ubuntu and its consorts. While the database of games with Linux support still grows, many titles are already available.
To install Steam on Ubuntu or Linux Mint, open a Terminal and enter the following commands:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys B05498B7
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ precise steam" >>
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/steam.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install steam
Afterwards start it with
steam
Install Steam on Ubuntu and Linux Mint
The second command in the first window needs to be changed to this I think
sudo apt-key adv –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys F24AEA9FB05498B7
I kept getting errors using the command
sudo sh -c ‘echo “deb http://repo.steampowered.com/steam/ precise steam” >>
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/steam.list’
Oops. I meant the first command, this one
sudo apt-key adv –keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com –recv-keys B05498B7
is the one that is wrong.
Does not work here. keep getting error on the second cmd.
The commands work, but I just stumpled about copy & pasting it into a terminal. That doesn’t work.
Please note that the command recv-keys has to be preceded by two “-” signs. But if I copy the command, I get instead this sign: – instead of —
That’s a common problem with blog-software 😉
for me only the second box is necessary
Absolutely wonderful
