It is likely a graphics driver configuration issue. What graphics system do you have, and what driver do you have?

Can you copy/paste the output from glxinfo into a gist, and post it here?

Odd question... does it have a dual-video setup (like Nvidia Optimus)?

@MrSchism: Based on his glxinfo, I think it may be a netbook type machine.

@kolito: I think you might be using xorg-edgers. Is that right? If so, can you try using the Mesa (9.0) that ships with Ubuntu 12.10 instead?

@kolito: Do you have any update on this issue? Have you been able to try mesa 9.0? Or, has Steam started working for you?

Jjljusten 2013-04-19 github

@kolito: I'm going to close this issue. If you get the chance to try steam with a stable release of Mesa >= 9.0 (rather than xorg-edgers), and it still fails, please re-open the issue.
