Hi
If I manually install a game for Steam Linux by copying the ~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/GAME_NAME folder to another computer, after validation the game will not start from the BPM interface. After running the 'chmod +x' command on the contents of the game directory (because I'm not sure which file is the executable) the game starts OK.

Games I have tested with are Portal 1+2 and borderlands 2 + TPS.

Should game validation mark the correct files as executable?
