    Haven't used Steam for Ubuntu in a while, but I'm pretty sure that I saw that Call of Duty was not being ported to Linux.

    EDIT: Just checked the Steam website, the game is not on Linux currently.

    Do you have ia32-libs installed?
    Code:
    sudo dpkg -s ia32-libs
    which is your version of ubuntu?

    @SMOKE14 is right, no Black Ops for linux. Also, I have a lot of humble bundle linux games,
    but not all are available on steam. Have you managed to install something, or you can't install any games?

    In theory Steam is 32bits, but Ubuntu has multiarchitecture enabled, so you shouldn't have any problems installing.
