Another Beta version of the Steam for Linux client has been released by Valve, bringing just a few fixes.

The company has two branches for Steam, a stable and a development one, and it usually tests all the changes and features in the Beta version. This is probably one of the last dev releases, and a major update is incoming.

According to the changelog, a regression from an earlier client Beta in the friends aliases dialog has been corrected, the cursor visibility for DOTA 2 has been fixed, a hang which occurred if there was no audio device on the remote computer has been repaired, and a crash that happened when the client disconnected due to network timeout has been fixed.

Check out the official announcement for more details about this release. You can also download the Steam installer from Softpedia if you don't have the client.

Keep in mind that this is a Beta version and you might experience some problems with it. In order to get it, you have to enroll in the Beta program, from Preferences.
