Hello Linux Geeksters. In this article I will show you how to install Steam Login on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail, Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal, Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin, Linux Mint 15 Olivia, Linux Mint 14 Nadia and Linux Mint 13 Maya.
Steam login is a package that enables you to use login directly to Steam BigPicture mode from your Desktop Manager Login screen.
Steam Login provides a better usage, since your computer does not load the entire desktop environment. By default, Steam Login uses Xfwm4, the Xfce4 window manager.
To install Steam Login on Ubuntu and Linux Mint, do:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:thor27-gmail/steam-desktop
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install steam-login
