Hello @TacoDeBoss, if the steam client is working, please include your system information as requested at https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux#reporting-issues, especially any CrashIDs, or if it is not working, then upload the assert somewhere and share a link here.
Can you test a while with the steam controller disconnected to see if your issue is #4129?
Sure. Here's the output from Steam's System Information:

And the CrashID: assert_20151119160813_1.dmp[5542]: response: CrashID=bp-8c14a61f-7347-4c54-ab6c-ab5992151119
I tried disconnecting the Steam Controller, and the problem still persists.
CrashID Changes each time. I just got CrashID=bp-442544e7-0da3-4f34-bf0e-9c6642151119.
Crashes happen regardless of branch, both stable and beta crash.
@TacoDeBoss per a discussion earlier on an irc channel, did you also remove the steam controller wireless dongle when doing that test?
@Tele42 Yes, the problem seems to occur regardless of a steam controller dongle being connected.
You are not supposed to use the mainline kernel packages from Ubuntu's PPA as they are with any sort of out of tree modules such as the nvidia or virtualbox drivers.
The correct way is to generate the kernel packages yourself. This will ensure that both the kernel and the out of tree modules were generated using the same gcc version.
More info here:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds
Guide to build generate your own packages here:
https://gist.github.com/silviucc/c3a19ba1306e232c9391
Anyway I can reproduce this easily thanks to info on this thread:
Basically, to get Steam to crash you just need to attempt to restore a game from a backup. You get a similar message to this:
steam[6622]: segfault at 43550208 ip 00000000f5dca400 sp 00000000ffef7df0 error 4 in libnvidia-glcore.so.358.16[f4661000+1b19000]
The crash does not happen if I revert to driver version 355.11
I can reproduce this on 64 bit Arch Linux with a GTX 660 and latest NVIDIA drivers. Steam crashes a lot even without any action on my side, possibly when receiving chat messages. This wasn't a problem with 355.
Same here on Arch Linux with a GTX970, kernel 4.2.5 and nvidia 358.16. Crash ID:
CrashID=bp-04c6b521-5522-426d-a258-5dace2151128
I can reproducibly trigger the crash by trying to assign a game to a category. I also have a Steam Controller adapter attached, but that seems to be unrelated as per above comments.
It's been several days and I don't have this issue anymore unless I set a game's category.
Now running Linux Kernel 4.3.0 (compiled from source) with Nvidia 358.16 drivers.
I have the same problem. Steam frequently crashes, sometimes without any sort of input on my part.
Here's a log:

This has been mentioned in other simular issue reports, but I'll explicitly mention it here, there is a known issue with nvidia 358, but not 355. nVidia needs to fix their driver.
Can someone please link to issue with Nvidia.
I don't know of a proper issue tracker, but there is https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/899924/.
I also got this problem since roughly a week.

nvidia 361.18-1 is in the Arch Linux testing repo. Has anyone with testing enabled continued to get this crash?
From the release notes (not sure if this is our bug):
Fixed a bug in the EGL driver where a mutex was unlocked more than once. This triggers undefined behavior, and in particular, if lock elision is enabled in glibc, may result in a segmentation fault.
I tried with nvidia 361.18-1 and still get a seg fault.

Updating to nvidia-drivers-361.18 on gentoo seems to have solved the problem for me. Steam has been running since the 30th and usually it would have crashed by now, so it seems to be OK for now.
Yes, the problem is with that particular version of nvidia drivers. I switched to the testing repos on Arch and the new version has fixed the issue.
It's a pity there is no 361 package in Rpmfusion yet. Even for Rawhide. Will have to wait for it.
Civilization V doesn't run with anything above 352.63 for me. Too bad too, the 361.18 fix a few KDE bugs, but I play Civilization almost daily while on my treadmill.
nvidia 361.18 is now in stable repos on Arch Linux. I upgraded a few days ago; just got another segfault when launching Dota 2 on nvidia 361.18 / linux 4.4.1 now.
I had to run "steam --reset" and then "STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam" launched successfully.
Re entered credentials, then enabled beta and restarted steam and it start OK.
When I try to launch Big Picture Mode (to use steam controllers) or automatically start in Big Picture Mode, the original segmentation fault comes up "~/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 756: 28526 Segmentation fault"
Tried launching steam with both the controller usb dongle inserted and removed.
Arch Linux 4.4.1-2
nvidia 361.18-3
I've been running 361.18 drivers since they came out, and the issue no longer is present for me.
However, as some people are still experiencing this issue, I believe it should be left open.
Steam is crashing with same segfault with nvidia 361.28-1 on Arch Linux 4.4.1-2, but only when trying to launch big picture (after starting steam).
I get this segfault CONSTANTLY. I'm running Void Linux, have had this segfault multiple times a day regardless of open beta or not. I just got a steam controller, too...
It looks like it segfaults when it tries to run the Steam debugger, which makes me wonder if it's a missing debugger?
I ran DEBUGGER=gdb steam and got a backtrace.

I suspect the people at Valve will have a better idea of what to do with this.
Someone else explained a possible cause of the problem here:
https://steamcommunity.com/app/274170/discussions/0/618458030660480661/
Running with glibc version 2.22 does not fix the problem.
It would be nice to at least have some confirmation from Valve that this is being worked on.
Driver info:
MesaLib-Devel: 11.1.2_1
mesa-ati-dri: 11.1.2_1
mesa-intel-dri: 11.1.2_1
mesa-intel-dri-32bit: 11.1.2_1
mesa-noveau-dri: 11.1.2_1
mesa-vmwgfx-dri: 11.1.2_1
I'm...not sure why I have so many different versions of mesa installed. Pretty sure I don't have an ATI card, or if I do, it's masked by the intel chips.
As of right now this problem still persists on Fedora 23 with the lastest kernel and nvidia drivers. Does anyone have a workaround other than booting in noveau? I've removed noveau and blacklisted it which is necessary for my configuration.
This problem persists on arch 64 bit. Crash when launching steam big picture.
It looks like this issue stems from running steam with STEAM_RUNTIME=0.
When running Steam with its shipped runtime "STEAM_RUNTIME=1 steam" the issue disappears for me.
Ok then, I had plenty of libc (and libudev) segfaults here while using fglrx (oddly they don't open with radeon driver), but finally I got the client starting with native libs.
I fixed them with stuff here and by replacing system lib32-libgudev and lib32-libusb with those provided by Steam.
Alternatively you can replace this last step with LD_PRELOAD.
EDIT: yesterday update did nothing.
Posting it here, since since this page pops out first when you try to google "steam 756 segmentation fault"
If you, by any chance, have ran into this problem after installing AMDGPU-PRO drivers, you might need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to your folder of amdgpu libraries. I use Arch x64, so for me it was /usr/lib32/amdgpu-pro
So, the full line would be LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib32/amdgpu-pro/ STEAM_RUNTIME=1 steam
After that, Steam worked perfectly fine even after just launching it with steam or steam-native
Hope that helps.
Hello, the original issue tracked here appears to have been a regression in the nvidia 358.xx series driver, which is no longer supported. The other unrelated issues appear to due to the overly generic issue report title and should have been tracked separately.
Closing as video driver quality from 2015 is no longer relevant.
Nothing extracted yet.
Seemingly randomly, while using the Steam client, the client will crash with a Terminal output of:
assert_20151119062153_1.dmp[18659]: Uploading dump (out-of-process) /tmp/dumps/assert_20151119062153_1.dmp /home/taco/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 756: 18483 Segmentation fault $STEAM_DEBUGGER "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@"Every time, the number before the words 'Segmentation fault' will change.
I've reinstalled after an
apt-get purge steam*, as well as a deletion of ~/.steam and ~/.local/Steam five or six times to no avail, as well as uninstalling Nvidia proprietary drivers and reinstalling the Steam client while using Nouveau drivers, as recommended in a forum thread I read.This error is happening on Linux Mint 17.2 Rafaela 64-bit XFCE (Ubuntu 14.04 LTS base with 4.1.7-040107-generic kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ ) with a GTX 780 Ti, Intel Core i7-3770k, 16 GB RAM. I have a Steam Controller, but this does not seem to be relevant.
This error is recent. (2-4 weeks ago this problem started)
On my other machines and operating systems this does not seem to happen.
