After fixing another issue with missing packages, this is what I get when I try to startup steam:
Running Steam on ubuntu 14.04 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(0)
libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
I've tried reinstalling several times, didn't work. Also tried deleting the appcache like some other answers said.
Any help greatly appreciated.
ps. what do I have to learn to understand these error messages
