We have released a new version of the Steam binary. The next time you run it on your machine it will auto-update itself (to version 2). If you encounter any problems with this auto-update process please tell us. If you haven't got Steam linux yet you can download the binary from the ftp server below and run it to update itself.
Changelog ----------- - Fixed FreeBSD using NIS failing to find a users home directory. - Added extra debug output on certain filesystem errors. - Alfred Alfred Reynolds wrote: > We have created a linux client for the current Steam Beta.
