Hello Nixers seeking some entertainment! I also did an attempt to make Steam working in NixOS. I have used a chroot approach and for me it seems to work fine. I was capable of deploying and running Half-Life, Half Life 2, Portal and Counter Strike and they all seem to work fine on both on my desktop machine (with NVIDIA GPU) and notebook (with Intel GPU).
More details: http://sandervanderburg.blogspot.com/2013/09/composing-fhs-compatible-chroot.html (Just search for tl;dr if you're too impatient :P) We may need to tweak the environment a bit to get other Steam games working that I don't know of, but the ones that I bought all seem to work. Best, Sander
