    Fantastic news! thanks

    beware NVIDIA tho:

    However, Valve notes the fact that enabling hardware acceleration on NVIDIA GPUs may cause X11 to crash. As such, hardware acceleration will be disabled by default for NVIDIA systems. In addition, Valve says that DPI scaling may not work correctly when hardware acceleration is disabled.

    Linux gamers will be happy to learn that this update makes it possible to enable hardware acceleration on the Steam Client
