Steam libGL errors

I know this problem has been posted many times before... however, every person who asks seems to be using nvidia drivers and even if I try to replace the solutions with amd drivers I can't seem to get it to work. Here's the log file when running with console.

[will@archpc ~]$ steam
/home/will/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 161: VERSION_ID: unbound variable
/home/will/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 161: VERSION_ID: unbound variable
Running Steam on arch  64-bit
/home/will/.local/share/Steam/steam.sh: line 161: VERSION_ID: unbound variable
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

All help is appreciated.

Don't know what threads you've been reading but this problem only really comes up with the open source drivers due to the libraries and most often with amd cards since most nvidia users use the proprietary ones anyway.

Re: Steam libGL errors

Well, it actually worked fine for me for a couple of weeks ago, using the open source intel driver. Now, this same problem appears (without the version_id line).

I got it working with this:

LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6 /usr/$LIB/libgcc_s.so.1 /usr/$LIB/libxcb.so.1 /usr/$LIB/libgpg-error.so' steam
