[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1478873] Re: Odd behaviour in some applications
I have eliminated some symptoms in other applications but the steam problem continues. More details about my installation: I installed Steam in /archive/steam, chown root:users and chmod 2770. /archive is a soft link to /home/archive. Steam itself starts normally but the Library does not show any games. Surving the Web and Shop through Steam browser also fails. When trying to install a game the installer does not list the default installation location "/archive/steam/steamapps" but other Partitions I never used for steam like "/steam", "/var/steam", "/home/steam". Also it does display "Disk space available: 0". Installation obviously fails because of access rights and available space. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1478873 Title: Odd behaviour in some applications Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Earlier today I installed linux-headers-3.13.0-59 linux-headers-3.13.0-59-generic linux-image-3.13.0-59-generic linux-image-extra-3.13.0-59-generic and after that some applications, most notably steam, started to behave strange, e.g. in steam installed software was "invisible" and the application install dialog stated "Disk Space Available: 0" Counter checks by booting some older kernels (48 to 58) fixed that behaviour.

gitarr, can you confirm that this might have to do with soft links? this would save me quite some work verifying this myself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1478873 Title: Odd behaviour in some applications Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Earlier today I installed linux-headers-3.13.0-59 linux-headers-3.13.0-59-generic linux-image-3.13.0-59-generic linux-image-extra-3.13.0-59-generic and after that some applications, most notably steam, started to behave strange, e.g. in steam installed software was "invisible" and the application install dialog stated "Disk Space Available: 0" Counter checks by booting some older kernels (48 to 58) fixed that behaviour.
