Help Please!

I've been having some problems running steam it installs but does not run all i get is a question mark logo and nothing happens I have run 'sudo apt-get remove steam' to try and uninstall and reinstall but nothing seems to help the first time i installed it it worked and loaded but froze immediately and didn’t work after that anyone having similar problems or have any solutions to try?

You should add some extra information. for example, what distro are you using (ubuntu?), and if your computer has got a 32 or 64 bit processor.

After install, I get a window that says "start steam beta". Did you get it too? Plus, the question mark becomes a normal icon after the first run

your Ubuntu is way out of date you need 12.04 and up http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/1/882965118609963322/

yeah that was a typo i have 12.04

As said before, Steam strongly recommends 12.04. Your version (if I recall) is not even supported anymore by Canonical.
