ERROR: ld.so: object ‘/home/peafield/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so’ from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
But I’m not even sure what this points to now.
Can anyone help? Or is anyone going through something similar with a similar set up?
EDIT: The solution, as many of you suggested, was to just change distros. I’d heard good things about Fedora so I tried it and everything ran first time with no tweaking! Thank you everyone for the advice.
LTS is your problem, it has too old stuff (kernel, drivers) for the sake of stability, never good for games, especially new ones.
If you want to stick with Ubuntu, you need the normal one, or change distro as you said, Fedora is good, Linux Mint is also really good and based on Ubuntu, if you want something more similar to what you’re used to.
Yeah this is what I ended up doing. Switched to Fedora and everything works perfectly! I’ve only been using Linux for about 6 months so I’m still getting my feet wet.

That’s ok, making mistakes is the best way to learn, we all made them :)
