could not open steam after installing.

I've tried this advise but it didn't help http://askubuntu.com/questions/219656/steam-not-opening-or-responding-at-all

Any advices?

It looks like you do not have OpenGL working. Do any OpenGL apps function (Steam is 32-bit, so you'd need to run a 32-bit app to check)?

have been played with drivers whole day. Finally, installed drivers directly from AMD site as described in the instruction

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#Installing_upstream_drivers_directly_from_AMD.27s_website

looks good now, downloading portal
