    game crash with DotA 2

    Hi, here's my problem: when I play to DotA for more than 20 minutes, the game crashes.
    Two months ago, I didn't have this kind of problem, and the computer doesn't have any problem to run CS GO (for now).
    My version of ubuntu: 14.04
    If someone can help me, I'll be grateful to him
    Edit: the componants of my computer => i3, nvidia gtx 650 ti and 2*2 go of ram
    If it can help.

    I'm not sure what the problem could be from, but you might want to take a look at this.

    It's important to note that Steam specifically says:
    Steam for Linux is currently only supported on Ubuntu 12.04/12.10 with Unity, Gnome, or KDE desktops.
    That could also be part of the problem

    Oh, I didn't know T_T
    Thanks, so, is there a way to solve the problem, except playing on another computer?

    When the game crashes do you get any kind of specific error message or does it just close and go to your desktop?

    Also, since you say this is a recent problem, you could try re-installing the game like this:


    1. Exit Steam and go to your Home folder.
    2. Press CTRL+H to reveal any hidden folders.
    3. Click on .local > share > Steam and do the following:
    4. Rename the "steamapps" folder to "old_steamapps"
    5. Re-launch Steam and re-install the game.
    6. Once the installation is complete, test the issue again.

    No, the game just stop running, but steam is not affected. Also, the loading time is way longer than before. I'll try what you said...
