First of all, I did use [testing] and the [mesa-git] repository. Steam worked fine yesterday. I updated today (pacman -Syu) and now I can't run Steam anymore.
So I thought: Okay, might be [testing] or something from [mesa-git], that is the problem, so I reverted back to the stable repos. But the problem still exists.
Starting Steam, I get a familiar console output:
$ steam
Running Steam on arch rolling 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1459463254)
libGL error: unable to load driver: radeonsi_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: radeonsi
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
The wiki has many solutions for this problem and they worked in the past, but this time, they don't work.
Starting Borderlands 2 for example, I get this extra output:
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 155 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
Value in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 102
Current serial number in output stream: 103
I also can't start the Battle.net-Launcher from Blizzard in Wine with the same output. Though I can play games like 0 A.D. or SuperTuxKart with no problem.
And now, that I don't know what to do anymore: Does someone know any more solutions or workarounds or does someone know, how I can get information out of the system to find the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Greetings,
Kernel 4.5 was recently pushed, but I have had a great deal of issues with it, including steam games. To confirm, post the output of uname -a back here. If you are using 4.5, it might be worth downgrading temporarily. Otherwise the following:
libGL error: unable to load driver: radeonsi_dri.so
libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: radeonsi
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Is very concerning. Your games probably won't work if you have a bad driver(s). Try looking in the wiki for the section on removing bad steam libraries before doing anything rash. I have an alias for this:
#Remove the bad steam libs
alias rmbadsteamlibs='find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete'
alias rmbadsteamlibslocal='find ~/.local/share/Steam/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" \) -print -delete'
but PLEASE check that this command will work for your system/configuration.
Hopefully you can solve your issue soon!

Hello JohnBobSmith. I downgraded to Kernel 4.4.5, but that did not work. Also I already used those 2 commands and every other solution presented in the wiki. Unfortunately, that did not work. :-/

remove libgpg-error.* from the runtime (NOT /usr/lib/).

Where do I find that? Because the search did not show such a file and I did not find it in "~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/".

I don't exactly know what did it, maybe the mesa update, but it is working again.

Huh. This worked for me in this bug report: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam- … ssues/4410
For my curiosity, do you know why this works? Should we add it to the list in the wiki?
