I just installed a steam update today, and since then it refuses to start. Here's what I get in a terminal:

Can confirm. Arch Linux x86_64, KDE 4.10, NVIDIA 304.64 ( running it on an old laptop with 6000 series)

I don't think system information will help with this issue, but here it is:

  • Intel i5 2500k
  • 16 GB RAM
  • IGP Intel HD3000

I first got an error about the network manager, and it seems to complain about something "proxy" related, so I installed the damn thing (not that I need or want it) but that obviously didn't help.

Same for me: Arch 64

By the way, disabling steam runtime fixes this.

Rrudzha 2013-02-09 github

@kevincox Odd, disabling steam runtime did nothing for me.
