Just installed your SteamOS edition. Can work only in text mode, getting black screen with "no input/out range" when switching to desktop/big picture modes.

What I tried:

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/steamuniverse/discussions/1/648814395877413023/

On lspci -v | less I get 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] (rev a1)

On apt-cache policy nvidia-driver I get this:

Nnvidia-driver:
Installed: 352.55-2+steamos1+bsos1
Candidate: 355.00.28-0+steamos2+bsos1
Version table:
355.00.28-0+steamos2+bsos1 0
500 http://repo.steampowered.com/seamos/ brewmaster/non-free amd64 Packages
*** 352.55-2+steamos1+bsos1 0
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

And on this cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -E 'X Driver|GLX'
I got this:

[ 19.876] (II) NVIDIA GLX Module 340.93 Web Aug 19 16:23:51 PDT 2015
[ 20.154] (II) NVIDIA dlloader K Driver 340.93 Web Aug 19 16:01:53 PDT 2015
[ 21.782] (II) Initializing extension GLX
[ 21.782] (II) Indirect GLX disabled.(II) config/undev: Adding input device Power Button (/dev/input/event3)

As you see, my GPU is supported and I really don't know where problem is.

Sorry for the late response, I had no idea what to do with this initially.

Have you tried using a different monitor? If that works, you can fix this by making some changes to /usr/bin/steamos/set_hd_mode.sh. I'll try to help you out when you report back.
