How to Install and Use Steam on Ubuntu Linux
Want to use Steam on Ubuntu Linux? Here are the essentials you need to know.
itsfoss.com
stop downloading windows stuff for linux. LINUX IS NOT WINDOZE
steam has its own linux native application usually available in your distro's repo. Try clicking on the software link on your distro and search for steam. NEVER LOAD WINDOZE FILES ON LINUX. you are asking for trouble that way.
Well you have downloaded the wrong thing you downloaded the one for Windowz not Linux - go here and follow the instructions

With more distributions not installing I386 codec's as standard [or wine automatically installing 32bit wine apps] I think we will be seeing more of this type of question/problem,

ok
@ubuntulinuxuser if you are happy with the outcome, just mark this as solved. You can do that from your fist post by choosing Edit, No Prefix, Solved.
