I had problems getting Steam to run on Ubuntu 15.04, I would get this error.
jason@darkstar:~$ steam

I found this script that you run on your system as a normal user and it will set some variables and then run Steam successfully.
#!/bin/bash
export LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' #Export so all child processes are affected as well
export DISPLAY=:0
steam -tcp |
#!/bin/bash
export LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' #Export so all child processes are affected as well
export DISPLAY=:0
steam -tcp
That is how easy it is to get Steam running on Ubuntu 15.04.
