Same error on Debian
same here
Hello @ensiform, you should be able to manually opt out of Steam's client beta by removing ~/.local/share/Steam/package/beta, but we'll need a Steam dev to take a look at this for a proper fix.
idem here, I did add a symbolic link steamui.so.so.0 to steamui.o then I get a mmap failed (after trying to load pulseaudio, which I don't have on my system, may be unrelated though).
Same here on Arch. Anyone know how to opt out of beta with steam cli?
Edit: @kisak-valve 's solution worked by removing ~/.local/share/Steam/package/beta
Try running Steam with -clearbeta (As per https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0188-6BB7-D467-08E1) I assume it works on both Windows and Linux
Thanks, running once with -clearbeta did seem to fix the problem (though it was a non-obvious solution).
Hello, it looks like this issue might have been quietly resolved overnight. Please retest this issue.
steamui soname is fixed here, but now I run into a pulseaudio->alsa fallback crash:
PulseAudio connect failed (used only for Mic Volume Control) with error: Access denied
PulseAudio context init failed
mmap() failed: Cannot allocate memory
... the previous message repeated many times...
Assertion 'c' failed at pulse/context.c:1060, function pa_context_set_state_callback(). Aborting.
Got it on Fedora 37
Hello @Eschguy, it's possible the affected build of Steam was queued overnight and this is a belated sighting.
If you manually opt out of Steam's client beta, let Steam update, and opt back into Steam's client beta, and let it update again, can you reproduce this issue?
Seeing similar here, though I'm actually seeing two different (possibly related) failures depending on how I start it. (Current ‘publicbeta’ build, build stamp 1680578442.)
With -no-cef-sandbox (see #9320):
PulseAudio connect failed (used only for Mic Volume Control) with error: Access denied
PulseAudio context init failed
ATTENTION: default value of option vblank_mode overridden by environment.
CAppInfoCacheReadFromDiskThread took 138 milliseconds to initialize

Failed to init SteamVR because it isn't installed

(I don't use pulseaudio.)
Without -no-cef-sandbox (see #9321):

@dsalt I run with a lean kernel, namely with -no-cef-sandox (even though is seems to be properly autodetected by steamwebhelper.sh now).
Weird, we get what seems to be a pulseaudio related crash, but at different places.
Hello @sylware, @dsalt, can one of you please open a separate issue report so that your follow up issue can be tracked properly?
Hey @kisak-valve, I was able to update into beta now. Thanks!
Nothing extracted yet.
