When I try to open Steam via terminal I get this:

bossbmm@BossBMM:~$ steam
Running Steam on ubuntu 16.04 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
[2016-10-12 11:06:41] Startup - updater built Sep 20 2016 18:20:24
SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)

  • Try moving the directory `~/.steam` To another place and restart Steam, it should update and may solve it. May not though. – M. Becerra Oct 12 '16 at 15:21

Open a terminal with CTRL+ALT+T and run these comands:

cd $HOME/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.bak
cd $HOME/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
mv libstdc++.so.6 libstdc++.so.6.bak

These commands were taken from this answer, and the poster of that answer took them from an UbuntuForums thread, and the author of that post took them from somewhere else...

    Those instructions most likely came from [ArchWiki Steam Troubleshooting](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Troubleshooting), which have since been modified. That and [Game-Specific Troubleshooting](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Steam/Game-specific_troubleshooting) are both great resources to fix Steam issues. – earthmeLon Oct 12 '16 at 15:35
