As you can see it is a 64bit Linux system (Ubuntu 15.04). Your game runs very well on my setup (the only annoying thing is that it does not remember fullscreen setting, so it always runs in windowed mode).
According to what you wrote, you call 32bit API, and for me it works. So it does not look like the issue you're trying to fix is connected to fact that on 64bit system you call 32bit Steam API.
If you need any log of your game or any additional testing just drop me a line.

Thanks for testing! You can make the game startup in fullscreen mode via [Settings]. Enable the "Fullscreen-Mode at Startup" option. I hope that works.

QuoteSo, it's SteamOS on your machine and a Linux distro with the Steam client on your customer's side, is that it?
Yes.

Also, the game comes bundled with the JVM. I cannot provide different apps with different JVMs for different Linux distributions in Steam. Not as far as I can tell? The goal is to fix the error, whatever the cause. The question is what is causing it?

QuoteOn your side, you can try to boot a different distro as live version, like Ubuntu, if your game is not too graphic intensive (as you won't be able to install eventual proprietary GPU drivers). You'll have to install Steam and maybe Java on it but it's in RAM, you don't install anything on your HD and don't mess with your current setup. That might allow you to check if you can reproduce the issue outside of SteamOS.
I tried VM before but it's difficult to always make it work. Not sure, but sometimes it just doesn't run due to some graphic card problems. It's an on/off. Also, it doesn't emulate the customer's machine if I cannot reproduce the error. In the end I still don't know what the problem is.

Just got it in: the machine is running Ubuntu 16.04 64bit, Nvidia 980ti. That's where it doesn't work. Given it worked in Ubuntu 15.04 for wojtek88, the question is, what's the difference? Did you install any compatibility libraries or such? Did Ubuntu change that much?
wojtek88 Apr 26, 2016
Hmmm, I will try to install Ubuntu 16.04 this week and will let you know. AFAIK a lot of software has some compatibility issues with Ubuntu 16.04, so It is possible that the problem lies here.
Quoting: noblemasterDid you install any compatibility libraries or such?
I don't recall such a thing. I will get back to you when I have 16.04 (I will do fresh install on other disk, for now I don't want to update) ;)
noblemaster Apr 27, 2016
I got a new binary with an updated JVM launcher. Unfortunately, it seems the customer has decided to change to Mint leaving me without options to test it :-/

Here is the new binary for anyone running 16.04:

I think this should work, but it's difficult to confirm now?
