Public bug reported: The game crashed while I was playing Team Fortress 2, koth_viaduct_event (Eyeaduct). I also noticed on the character configuration screen there was the sound of static, it would go away when I closed that menu and come back when I would open it again.
The actual package for Steam failed to install in the Ubuntu Store app and I believe it has something to do with the extra add-on for the fonts, which is set to be automatically downloaded and install with Steam from Valve. I was however able to download Steam and the addition font library without incident from the terminal with the following command. sudo apt-get install steam The Steam launcher installed all the prerequisite files and downloaded and installed the run-time files with no trouble at all.
