Does anyone know what this is about? I am using the nvidia drivers and never had a problem before now with launching Steam. Could this be because of a missing package or use flag change that I missed pertaining to opengl?

Any help is much appreciated to get my gaming box back up and running soon (next few days would be nice).

Is this error printed directly when launching the Steam client, or when you play some particular game(s) through Steam? If the former, do any games work? Do glxinfo and glxgears work normally? What is the output of emerge --verbose --info list-of-relevant-packages. Relevant probably covers at least the X server, mesa, the nVidia drivers, and any Steam packages.

Are you using the 390.x drivers? If so, this thread and this one may be relevant. I just got bitten by this myself and the solution in this post got it working for me (note that if the nvidia-drivers ebuild complains about CONFIG_DRM and CONFIG_DRM_KMS_HELPER when you install it, you really do need them turned on now whereas it used to work fine without them).

I am using the latest nvidia-driver, which I wonder if I should try downgrading those drivers first. From the relevant posts provided by mollets, which thank you for that...I can see others were working with 340 and 390 drivers.
By the way, should I unmerge this package:
[IP-] [M ] app-eselect/eselect-opencl-1.1.0-r4:0

I don't know if that will make any difference, or I can try the XORG configuration changes with the drivers I have installed.

Code:

playboy ~ $ emerge --info nvidia-drivers

I wonder if this could also be responsible for the problem. I am going to remove the use flag now and reinstall these three packages. Hopefully that is enough to get this problem solved.

The libglvnd flag is forced on because it's not going to be an optional feature in future. I'd be surprised if it doesn't work properly in 450.x, though. It's causing problems for those of us who have to use the older drivers because it's not supported at all in 340.x and it's only minimally supported in 390.x.

Have a look at the output of 'glxinfo | grep -i opengl' and 'glxinfo | grep -i render' (glxinfo is in x11-apps/mesa-progs). They should both reference your GPU. When I had the problem, they were both listing the Mesa software renderer meaning that everything was being done on the CPU.

molletts, first of all thanks for responding I see the complication in this situation is caught up in the different nvidia drivers and the mesa and xorg configuration too. I am still getting the Steam error that exists, but I just updated the entire system including those packages (I believe) and I am not seeing any improvements. I ran the commands and here is the output...

Does this mean that mesa is doing the rendering and if so how should I turn that off?

Code:

EDIT:

I wonder if a good approach might be to fresh reinstall steam-launcher? Or also to redo the abix86_32 use flags for the package?

Here is the output I have when launching the application...

My hunch is that 32-bit libraries are missing since I know Steam has a 32-bit runtime. Can someone please comment on the use flags to rebuild the packages with the right use flag...
The "culprits" appear to be those already mentioned or else steam-launcher itself perhaps? IDK.

I don't use steam nor checked the thread much to know what's going on here, but for a long time 32-bit libraries were installed by nvidia-drivers regardless of USE=abi_x86_32 if supported due to a bug, then got fixed under a month ago making libraries vanish if unset next rebuild (no revbump, but new version since). And I think it got forgotten that the USE should be made a dependency when something does need it, so portage might not know.

If you use steam/wine/games/etc... you more than likely need to set this on nvidia-drivers plus anything portage complain about when you do -- unless you only play very modern games that are (finally) going away from 32bit even on Windows.

Edit: if in doubt, setting it global with ABI_X86="64 32" (either in make.conf or "*/* ABI_X86: 32" in package.use) then a world update with -U also works, but it'll mean a lot of rebuilds and extended build time on many packages providing libraries. Can be simpler if you need almost them all though (often due to wine+gstreamer+ffmpeg using a bit of everything.. but steam does bundle of lot of libraries for games/proton rather than rely on the system's, so you may not need to go that far).

I've managed to get this done shortly after my last post with minimal use flag changes to the nvidia-drivers package and I believe vdpau to include the 32-bit libraries.
I imagine that Steam's 32-bit dependencies are not going away immediately so that is why I need them. Thanks to all for the timely help, which can always be relied on with Gentoo linux!

EDIT: I solved my problem, now latest nvidia drivers (450), Steam client works and all games run OK.

changed make.conf
Code:
ABI_X86="64"

(removed "x32", don't know why it was here)
then added to package.use
Code:
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers compat abi_x86_32

and recompiled with
Code:
emerge --changed-use

Thanks! This worked perfectly for me! I appreciate you posting your fix instead of just saying it was solved!
