I've just installed Steam on my computer, created a Steam account and tried clicking on the steam icon to load it.  It gave me the following error and then shuts down:If I type steam in the terminal, it gives me all this:oshirowanen@home-desktop:~$ steamRunning Steam on ubuntu 12.04 64-bitSTEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automaticallyInstalling breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)unlinked 0 orphaned pipesInstalling breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)[1012/132155:WARNING:proxy_service.cc(646)] PAC support disabled because there is no system implementationInstalling breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)Generating new string page texture 2: 48x256, total string texture memory is 49.15 KBGenerating new string page texture 3: 256x256, total string texture memory is 311.30 KB(steam:3710): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: g_simple_async_result_complete() called from wrong context!(steam:3710): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: g_simple_async_result_complete() called from wrong context!(steam:3710): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: g_simple_async_result_complete() called from wrong context!Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1370553818_client)`menu_proxy_module_load': /home/oshirowanen/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam: undefined symbol: menu_proxy_module_load(steam:3710): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to load type module: (null)roaming config store loaded successfully - 0 bytes.Adding license for package 0Generating new string page texture 4: 128x256, total string texture memory is 442.37 KBGenerating new string page texture 5: 512x256, total string texture memory is 966.66 KBGenerating new string page texture 6: 24x256, total string texture memory is 991.23 KBunlinked 2 orphaned pipesCAsyncIOManager: 0 threads terminating.  0 reads, 0 writes, 0 deferrals.CAsyncIOManager: 522 single object sleeps, 0 multi object sleepsCAsyncIOManager: 0 single object alertable sleeps, 1 multi object alertable sleeps[2013-10-12 13:21:54] Startup - updater built Jun  6 2013 13:48:29[2013-10-12 13:21:54] Verifying installation...[2013-10-12 13:21:54] Verification completeShutting down. . .[2013-10-12 13:22:05] ShutdownAnyone know why I can't load steam?  My internet connection is working obviously, as I wouldn't be able to type all this if I had an internet connection issue.I've tried reinstalling it many times, but still get the same issue.
Can't connect to steam
ubuntu;internet;steam
In a terminal:steam --resetThis will provide a clean install for the client, but leave all your games untouched.Be aware that although this will fix your connection issue, it's akin to buying a new car to fix a flat tire. There is probably a simpler and more elegant solution, but I wasn't able to find one when I had this problem.
