I've already installed Steam, but when I click on the program I get this message
ERROR- You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:

I don't know what to install or even do.

This seem to happen on every 64 bits OS.
Full bug report here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/321
Solution:
gksudo gedit /etc/ld.so.conf.d/steam.conf
Add next two lines to file:
/usr/lib32
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa
Then execute:
sudo ldconfig
Now you should be able to run Steam

Here's what I had to do on Intel Sandy Bridge (HD3000 graphics)- for Nvidia/AMD use appropriate source:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib
Steam and 3D in vmWare works now.
fglrx
package which provides libGL.so
, which was named libgl1-fglrx-glx:i386
, and then create the symlink to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/fglrx/libGL.so.1
. Then it worked perfectly.
find / -xdev -name libGL.so.1 | grep i386
.
No problem. Welcome to Linux and Ubuntu, by the way.
First, if you didn't install Steam from the Ubuntu Software Center, and didn't try, see if you can install it that way, removing Steam from your system beforehand. You may need to run sudo apt-get update
in a terminal beforehand (when it prompts you for your password, it's typing even if nothing shows up onscreen). I've also noticed that Steam only shows up in the Software Center when you click "show technical items" at the bottom.
If that doesn't help, see the Known Issues section on the Valve Developer wiki. Follow the instructions for Debian-based distributions:
sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
Let me know if these instructions don't make sense.
You are propably running an 64bit version of Ubuntu.
Just open the terminal and type:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
This way you'll have full compatibility with 32bit applcations, such as Steam, skype and others.
I'm running 14.04 LTS
(with elementary OS 0.3.2 Freya 64bit
), and this worked perfectly for me:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo add-apt-repository multiverse
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install steam
Also, to note, this was actually a solution for a different (but related) problem.
How to run Steam with ATI 13.04 on Ubuntu 13.04 64bit with kernel 3.8.12:
open terminal
Create startup file in your home directory:
sudo gedit st3am.sh
put this in file:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib32/fglrx/libGL.so.1 steam
Save & make executable:
chmod a+x st3am.sh
Make shortcut and move to desktop or add to your application menu
Have a fun :)
I simply ran using optirun. From a terminal window: optirun steam
. Sets steam running on my actual graphics card rather than cpu-onboard intel graphics.
I had a similar problem with nVidia and Steam, using a GeForce 650ti with the 331 drivers.
I ended up doing CTRL-ALT-F1 and logging in, then
sudo service lightdm stop
,
telinit 3
(perhaps not needed after the service stop), and sudo sh NVIDIA*.run
.
The original 331 drivers were removed, and the installation (this time) went fine, and Steam works.
