@kisak-valve Is there a way I can rollback the Steam client update?
crashes even with -no-browser
Having a similar issue with the .deb version of steam on Kubuntu 20.04 LTS. Not on the Steam Client beta. After a couple minutes, steam and the game I am currently playing crash. I believe this is an X issue. Here are some relevant lines in the log:
Maximum number of clients reachedMaximum number of clients reachedsrc/clientdll/inputgenerator_linux.cpp (335) : m_pDisplay
src/clientdll/inputgenerator_linux.cpp (335) : m_pDisplay
/home/username/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 796: 2818 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@"
I'm having a near identical issue as well with the Manjaro package. The client works for a few minutes then will crash. If anyone knows if it's possible to rollback to a previous version, that will help until the issue is resolved.
I also experience a similar issue on Gentoo, but only for the flatpak version (both regular and beta). Attaching logs. The non-flatpak version installed from the steam overlay works fine.
The crash ID in @klarasm's report points towards SDL2's SDL_dbus.c - possibly related to https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/6129
Getting same issue on Batocera steam crashes after about 30 seconds after launch
I am currently experiencing the problem as well. I wish could provide more information :/
For everyone searching for a quick hack-fix, I was able to solve my problem by adding export $(dbus-launch) in my .bashrc and launch Steam from the terminal.
Update from my side, I switched my Gentoo installation to systemd and the now steam seems to run fine under flatpak and I could launch games with it (both native and via proton). The version of SDL seems to be the same as before: Loaded SDL version 2.25.0-7511446. Perhaps systemd does some additional integration with flatpak that openrc does not (could be the user instance which seems to start flatpak-session-helper.service when flatpak is launched). Attaching logs in case they could be useful.

Your system information
Startup - updater built Sep 21 2022 20:13:19Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Started to happen right after I received Steam's "client update" notification and pushed "Restart". Now happens every time right after ~30 seconds.
Only Steam client itself was updated - not system package, not flatpak package.
