I bought the latest Humble Indie Bundle and I activated the Steam Keys in Steam. All the games have Linux support, but most of them not in Steam. The problem was that Steam tried to download the game while this isn't possible. I got an error. I don't know exactly anymore what the error was, but I think that doesn't matter.
Short: Steam shouldn't try to download a game after activating the Steam key if there is no Linux support.

When I was activating keys some games were downloaded successfully but for few games I got an error with a link to nonexistent article on Steam Support site. Those games weren't downloaded but were added to my game list.

Yes. That's the problem I mean. Those games just don't have Linux support on Steam.

As you can see here: #16 this has been reported several times already. We just have to wait for Steam to add support for those games.
