Steam Client - Crashed While playing game and will not start back up.

[blu006]

Hello all,

My steam setup is a little custom (I ran a script to get it working on Debian, but understand some of the internal workings of the script.)

But it should have the same libraries as a user on Ubuntu should (other than graphics libraries, but I don't think that's where the problem is)

So, to give you guys the proper debugging info, I have run a few things: a simple dump of console output, a bit of gdb output, and a hardinfo report. I will paste the console output and gdb output. The hardinfo report is available on request (it's a bit large!).

If you guys need me to provide any more info, I would be more than willing to do so.

[gdrewb-valve]

The crash is in the Intel video driver, so I've marked it for them.

[jljusten]

@p1oooop: What is the output from this command?
$ glxinfo|grep "OpenGL "

And:
$ strings /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so|grep "%s Mesa"

[kisak-valve]

Closing as general video driver quality from 2013 is no longer relevant.
