The game demo doesn't launch due to, presumably, an X error.

There have been some overlay updates since this was opened. Does it still fail with the overlay enabled but work with the overlay disabled?

Ggdrewb-valve maintainer 2013-01-23 github

Closing pending confirmation the bug is still active.
