Steam doesn't work on 'any Linux' without jumping through many many hoops for most distros.

This is still the case, they had a native client for a while, but it is 32-bit and only well supported on Ubuntu and very similar distros.

Which have you had problems with.

I work Ubuntu Based, Fedora, and Arch have had no issues on these.

Gentoo to name one.

I had zero issues installing Steam and CS on my Gentoo workstations (two of them). This was 2 years ago.
