So yeah, I installed Steam through the client and the first time I run it, it shows the "updating" window, and it gets to 99% then the box disappears and nothing else happens.

I'm running Debian 6.02 Squeeze
Kernel 2.6.39-2-amd64
GNOME 2.30.2

4GB RAM, i5-2540M

I have the wine config set up for Steam to run Windows 2008, if that helps. Thanks alot.

Be sure to use PoL 3.8.12 and the Steam PoL installer.

Have you any error output ?
Launch PoL from a terminal to get some and post it here please
