Garry's Mod don't work [Catalyst][64-bit]

Hi all,

After a recent re-install of Arch(I'm a distrohopper, so that happens a lot), Garry's Mod starts, but after a few seconds, exits with a segfault. Here is the error (starting at Steam launch):

Terminal Output: http://pastebin.com/K41cLf4q

As you can see there are several errors happening here.

First, the "ERROR: ld.so" thing pops up in any distribution I use, 32-bit drivers installed and all, even Ubuntu! I have a feeling that this is the underlying problem. Am I missing any 32-bit libraries?

Second, it cannot open libsteam.so. This is strange, because when I look in the filesystem, at ~/.local/share/Steam/linux32/, libsteam.so is right there. After further investigation, it appears to be a symlink to .local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/libsteam.so

After that, it fails with:

 /home/andrew/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/GarrysMod/hl2.sh: line 67: 28903 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) ${GAME_DEBUGGER} "${GAMEROOT}"/${GAMEEXE} "$@" 

One last thing. I am using the AMD Catalyst 14.12 64-bit driver, with OpenGL 4.4 and direct rendering on. When installing from the AUR(catalyst-test), it says "lib32-catalyst-utils is being installed" or something along that.

I have explored extensively across the internet for answers, some work, but only to a point(which is the GMod crash). Here is a list of the articles and forum posts I have read, and followed the instructions from. Please do not give me information from those, as I have already tried.

Attempted fixes:

1. Deleted the outdated libraries Steam came with(https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/questi … glx-error/), executed correctly, but did not fix it.
2. Changed startup settings(-autoconfig, windowed), didn't work
3. Disabled steam overlay, didn't work.

Thank you beforehand for any and all help!
