Whenever I click the steam app it won't start and when I try from the terminal it says:

Running Steam on ubuntu 15.10 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(0)
libGL error: unable to load driver: r600_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: r600
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

What do I do?

  • What driver do you use? Xorg or Nvidia or even Amd?

  • Did you use Valve's official package from steam.com or did you use the package in the Ubuntu repositories?

seems to be a Problem with the libs from Steam. Here is a link which discribe the problem link . You can try to delete the file like suggested there.

Alternativly you can try start steam without this libs with adding STEAM_RUNTIME=0. You can test this if you start a terminal and start steam with this like

STEAM_RUNTIME=0 steam
