[Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

I get

Xlib:  extension "NV-GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
Error: OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering, which may cause performance problems.

For more information visit https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=9938-EYZB-7457.

every time i launch steam, if i try to launch a game (any game) all i'll get is a blank window. if it's a fullscreen game i get sound but crash my X while at it.

I formerly had an nvidia gpu but i'm now using an intel igpu instead. i ran "pacman -R nvidia" and replaced nvidia's libgl with the mesa one.

what shall i do?

edit: ------

Wait, what? That sounds nvidia specific

lsmod | grep nvidia

should not show anything.

grep -i nvidia /var/log/Xorg.0.log

should not show anything either. If it does, look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ whether there's one leftover.
------


Have mesa-demos installed.
Make sure

glxinfo | grep OpenGL

shows intel stuff and not software rasterizer or llvmpipe or something like that.

Many games on steam are 32 bit.
Have the multilib repository enabled and have lib32-mesa-demos installed.
Make sure you have lib32-intel-dri and all that stuff installed and that

glxinfo32 | grep OpenGL

shows intel stuff.

If you have that stuff installed and it doesn't show intel gpu stuff, try

LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo32 | grep OpenGL

to see a little bit of info how it wants to open the graphics driver.

Steam runs now, and some of the games display now (iGpus are crappy even on windows, worse on linux). Thanks for your help smile

Hello guys

Installing lib32-mesa-libgl did the trick for me too, thanks !

I'm having the same issue with ATI open drivers. Running steam in a console shows me this:

lib32-mesa-libgl is already installed

Any ideas?

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

I have the same problem with radeon-si driver. I'm on a 32 bit system so I wonder if this is related to lib32* at all.
Any ideas?

Thanks

@ freijon

libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib32/xorg/modules/dri/radeonsi_dri.so failed (/home/jonas/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.20' not found (required by /usr/lib32/libLLVM-3.4.1.so))

That line shows the cause of your problem.

Your steam apps try to use the steam supplied libstdc++.so.6 version and  that's to old for most arch pacakges (in this case the lib32-llvm-libs package ).
try rm /home/jonas/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6

@cb951303 :
unless you got the same error messages, you got a different problem then freijon .
If so, please start a new thread and post the output of steam.

Shouldn't this be fixed downstream?

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

I'm getting this error again (I had it before, but removing libstdc++.so.6 fixed it). How can I track down what's causing the problem now so I can fix it again? I tried removing libstdc++.so.6.0.16, but it made no difference.

That line shows the cause of your problem.

Your steam apps try to use the steam supplied libstdc++.so.6 version and  that's to old for most arch pacakges (in this case the lib32-llvm-libs package ).
try rm /home/jonas/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6

@cb951303 :
unless you got the same error messages, you got a different problem then freijon .
If so, please start a new thread and post the output of steam.


This fixed my problem when getting the message after an update today. I am using open source drivers with my AMD R7 260X and all the latest stable updates for Arch. Thanks!

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

I had the same Problem with the GLX Error and to rm the libstdc++.so.6 doesn't.
So i tried and tried some things and the solution for me was installing steam with lib32-mesa-libgl. After steam was installed rm lib32-mesa-libgl and install lib32-nvidia-libgl or lib32-nvidia-libgl-beta (depending which Nvidia driver is installt). i tested it with bothe Nvidia Drivers (stable: 340.32 and beta: 343.22). I hope this may help sombody.

So long!

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

Not sure how or why this worked, but simply installing lib32-mesa-libgl, thus removing lib32-nvidia-libgl followed by the installation of lib32-nvidia-libgl, thus removing lib32-nvidia-libgl, again, followed by a reboot just for kicks, did the trick, and good thing too. I've got enough problem without having to worry about getting the one thing that keeps me sane to work.

Anyway, thank for the help.

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

This is something that seems to keep coming back every now and then after an update to steam, I have to delete the lib files every time, it would be nice if they stopped packaging so much crap with it.

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

This occurred to me when I migrated from nvidia to nvidia-340xx. but I had forgotten to migrate the following :
lib32-nvidia-libgl -> lib32-nvidia-340xx-libgl

and maybe some other packages like:

lib32-nvidia-utils -> lib32-nvidia-340xx-utils

I have a card of the G8xxx family.

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

Just as an FYI for other users who might be running into this error on Steam start. I also noticed this appeared to be affecting the use of native OpenGL app's and providing the error message in game:
gl error 0x500 at draw_screen

Similarly, moving this file to a backup resolved the issue. 
/home/jonas/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6

Hope this helps someone.

You suggested to install lib32-mesa-libgl but i use nvidia drivers and i have lib32-nvidia-libgl, so, why this error is being shown?

Re: [Solved]Steam OpenGL GLX context is not using direct rendering

A fuller error message in code tags would be nice. Did you try moving the libstdc++ bundled with steam or downgrading the shared C++ packages? Note that Arch is using a newer C++ ABI that most other people.
