[Solved] Steam can't find libGL.so.1 with ATI open-source drivers

Hello,

Please excuse the weird post title, as i can't formulate it any clearer. The problem is the following : i have installed the x86_64 arch, and Steam installed from multilib mirror. Steam requires the lib32-* video drivers or 64-bit distros, so i installed lib32-ati-dri (having an ATI gpu, using open source driver ati-dri). Even though i have libGL.so / libGL.so.1 located in /usr/lib/, whenever i try to start Steam, i get the following error :

You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libGL.so.1

[psycho@madness ~]$ sudo find / -name libGL.so
/usr/lib/libGL.so

[psycho@madness ~]$ steam

You need lib32-mesa-libgl, but you should already have it as a dependency of lib32-ati-dri. Try reinstalling it.

You need lib32-mesa-libgl, but you should already have it as a dependency of lib32-ati-dri. Try reinstalling it.

[psycho@madness ~]$ pacman -Ss mesa-libgl && pacman -Ss ati-dri
extra/mesa-libgl 9.1.1-1 [installed]
    Mesa 3-D graphics library
multilib/lib32-mesa-libgl 9.1.1-1 [installed]
    Mesa 3-D graphics library (32-bit)
extra/ati-dri 9.1.1-1 [installed]
    Mesa drivers for AMD/ATI Radeon
multilib/lib32-ati-dri 9.1.1-1 [installed]
    Mesa drivers for AMD/ATI Radeon (32-bit)

I think i have reinstalled them about three times now, with no success.

As said, your lib32 libGl is missing, I don't know why -I own a nvidia card-

[mz@gantz ~]$ sudo find / -name libGL.so
[sudo] password for mz:
/usr/lib/libGL.so
/usr/lib/nvidia/libGL.so
/usr/lib32/libGL.so
/usr/lib32/nvidia/libGL.so

So, with the X closed, i uninstalled lib32-mesa-libgl, rebooted, then installed it (still, with the X closed). It created the libGL.so file in /usr/lib32. Everything's fine now, with Steam.

See above.

are you in group video?

I only got group 'users'. Also, see above.

Thank you all for the replies.
