 Posted: Wed Feb 17, 2016 11:55 pm Post subject: Steam installation - libGL errors |
 |
|
Hello all, I've completed a recent, fresh install of gentoo, and I've been attempting to install steam.
I think I should also preface this post with the fact that I'm pretty much still a beginner with linux - so these errors may (hopefully) end up being a simple fix.
I've followed all the steps on the wiki, but when I run the steam script, I get the following output:
| Code: | bladesy@sheath ~/Downloads/steam $ ./steam
/home/bladesy/Downloads/steam/steam.sh: line 161: VERSION_ID: unbound variable
Couldn't find dpkg, please update steamdeps for your distribution.
/home/bladesy/Downloads/steam/steam.sh: line 161: VERSION_ID: unbound variable
Running Steam on gentoo 64-bit
/home/bladesy/Downloads/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: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast |
Contents of the steam directory:
| Code: | bladesy@sheath ~/Downloads/steam $ ls
bootstraplinux_ubuntu12_32.tar.xz COPYING lib Makefile steam.6 steam.desktop steam.list
bootstrap.tar.xz debian linux32 README steamdeps steam_install_agreement.txt steam.sh
check_version.sh icons logs steam steamdeps.txt steam-key.asc ubuntu12_32 |
(The reason I post this is because I remember reading something about steam.desktop being missing from the ~/Desktop directory, but I never experimented or anything.)
The one thing that worries me is the multilib warning in the wiki, as I read a forum post for someone with a similar problem, stating that this may be caused by an absence of 32bit libraries.
I should note that I have an nvidia GPU, and I am using the proprietary drivers (nvidia-drivers) on a UEFI 64bit install.
Thanks for reading, I'm open to any suggestions I could try out. |

Teegrins, Bladesy!
You'll probably get it running by doing something like this:
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib32/opengl/nvidia/lib" ./steam |
If you're using the (currently) latest nvidia-drivers, you may want to add this for at least source-based games to run:
| Code: | | __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1 |
See also threads [Workaround] Latest SOURCE games and Latest Nvidia drivers and Native Steam client and source game engine.

Thanks for replying, specifying the LD_LIBRARY_PATH makes steam start trying to update - but it then fails after the download completes, giving this output after all the download-related messages:
| Code: | [2016-02-18 13:25:32] Download Complete.

The error message that pops up says:

If I try to run it a second time, nothing is downloaded again, and so I get this output:

All the failed directory messages are making me think it might be a permissions related error, but I'm honestly not sure.
Also, where abouts should I place __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1?
Thanks again for helping me. |

Similar to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, the __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING is an environment variable, so something like this for example:
| Code: | | __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1 LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib32/opengl/nvidia/lib" ./steam |
Some prefer using the command export:
| Code: | | export __GLVND_DISALLOW_PATCHING=1 |
This would set the variable for the shell it's run in, so commands would not be needed to be prefixed with it to have its effect(s). It will only have the effect in that shell, however, and it will be lost when the shell is closed. For a more permanent solution, one could put the export-command into a user's ~/.bashrc-file for example.
It looks like setting __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=0 should work as an alternative workaround.
This will probably be fixed in nvidia-drivers at some point, if we were to go by this comment at devtalk.nvidia.com. Kind of funny that as soon as I read the release notes on the 361.28 version, I was pretty much certain that there would be issues. ^^
But that's only something that should affect some games from the looks of it, and with nvidia-drivers-361.28.
This particular issue at hand looks like permission issues to me, too, though I can't say I've seen those exact messages before.
How did you install Steam? Looking at the paths, I'd guess not the ebuild route; I myself have only used the manual method. It's one of the rare exceptions that I rather not use Portage for, though the ebuilds probably are quite convenient!
How do the permissions in the root directory of Steam look? I believe ./steam/cached would be under that as well (something like /home/bladesy/Downloads/steam/steam/cached).

I used the manual method for installing steam, but I used portage beforehand to get all the dependencies - which reminds me that I ended up masking previous versions of nvidia-drivers that was pulled in.
Also, I can't find a steam directory within the steam directory, or a cached directory in either steam directory.
I'm not exactly sure how to read permissions, but with ls -al, my username seems to be attached to all files:

Are you guys using the legacy non-GLVND version of the =x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-361.28-r2 ?? Enabled with USE flag +compat ... I can't test this because the 361.28 breaks my resume from sleep cycle... So I've reverted back to 361.18.
If anyone here wants to "weigh in" on my campaign to fix Gentoo's =app-eselect/eselect-opengl-1.3.1-r4 ... Then please add your (rude) comments to: app-eselect/eselect-opengl with media-libs/mesa with x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-361 - GLX not working(?) ...
I got a bit disheartened - so I've just written my own - out of tree / unofficial version - which is currently in my Layman overlay bobwya .
For your reference it's the current(-ly broken) Gentoo implementation that forces you pass the linker:
| Code: | | LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib32/opengl/nvidia/lib" |
path before you run Steam 
Please can you guys start actually referencing package versions - the thread is not very helpful for anyone else running into similar problems as yourselves!!
Bob

I'm actually not completely sure on the version of nvidia-drivers that I'm using - it should be x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-358.16-r1:0/358::gentoo, but apparently x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93-r1:0/340::gentoo is installed also, if what I gather from the output below is correct:
| Code: |
bladesy@sheath ~/.local/share/Steam $ sudo emerge --update --newuse --deep @world
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild U ] x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-358.16-r1 [340.93-r1] USE="gtk3%* kms%* -gtk2%"
!!! Multiple package instances within a single package slot have been pulled
!!! into the dependency graph, resulting in a slot conflict:
x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers:0
(x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-358.16-r1:0/358::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) pulled in by
(no parents that aren't satisfied by other packages in this slot)
(x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93-r1:0/340::gentoo, installed) pulled in by
~x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93 required by (media-video/nvidia-settings-340.58:0/0::gentoo, installed)
^ ^^^^^^
It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.
!!! The following installed packages are masked:
- x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-340.93-r1::gentoo (masked by: package.mask)
For more information, see the MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge
man page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

It says that I have masked the previous version, but it's still installed anyway - could this maybe have anything to do with steam not working? |

As root (yup some folks need to be reminded  ):
| Code: | echo "x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers tools" >> /etc/portage/package.use # Add this manually if /etc/portage/package.use is directory or if you like things tidy :-)
emerge --depclean nvidia-settings
emerge --unmerge nvidia-settings
emerge nvidia-drivers |
The nvidia-settings package refuses to die - basically because some (extremely) obscure in-tree ebuilds - that probably haven't been updated for decades - depend on it
I would fix that issue first

Not always possible. CounterStrike:GlobalOffensive actually sets that in the csgo.sh script so if you set it in your env, the game sets it back to "1". Option would be to edit csgo.sh but since there was a big update last night BAM to that edit  hence the other env variable was offered
also gl_threaded_optimisation has been in the nvdrivers for at least 6months so what changed in the recent patchset that got you concerned?

I've sorted out the package conflict, so I should be using nvidia-drivers 358.16 - but now steam just freezes when I run it.

The errors are slightly different, but both still just keep on running to no avail.
Really not sure where the problem is at all. |

Steam is a 32bit application.
You need multilib support

I had a feeling it would come down to this, mostly because I've no idea how multilib works on gentoo - I assumed that as long as my profile wasn't a no-multilib profile, I would be fine.
How exactly is multilib support enabled? |

| I wonder if this is solely a problem with the OpenGL libraries I have installed, because I'm getting similar messages that result in fatal errors when I try to launch Unreal Tournament 4 - which I don't think needs 32-bit libraries. |

Hi Bladesy
The theory: Project:Multilib/Concepts
The use of: emul-linux* packages is now depreciated.
tl;dr version:
To enable multilib globally
Add
| Code: | ## Use multilib for all packages ##
ABI_X86="32 64" |
to your /etc/portage/make.conf file
(which is what I use)
To enable multilib selectively
For each package requiring a 32-bit version, add:
| Code: | | category/package abi_x86_32 |
to your /etc/portage/package.use file (or add that USE flag - to an existing entry)
(may be more "manual" work - as you'll have to track down packages that need to provide 32-bit versions for Wine / native Steam compatibility)
There'll be more building but no (extra) package fetching / net traffic!!
Bob

Thanks Bob, it seems the fact I hadn't enabled multilib was the problem - it took a while to recompile everything, but when I went to the steam directory and ran it while specifying the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, steam ends up working perfectly.
The gentoo wiki then says to copy that steam executable file to /usr/local/bin to allow steam to be launched like a normal program, but suddenly it doesn't work - even when I specify the LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
| Code: | bladesy@sheath ~/Downloads/steam $ LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib32/opengl/nvidia/lib" steam
cp: cannot stat ‘/usr/lib/steam/bootstraplinux_ubuntu12_32.tar.xz’: No such file or directory

Does this mean that maybe the installed steam is lacking something that the downloaded steam has?
Or maybe the installed steam hasn't been installed correctly? |

Why re-invent the wheel? Personally I don't want headaches - if I want my games to "just run" then I just add the steam-overlay Overlay with layman. Works fine for me (hah, hah - famous last words)!! Now, if only someone would help with my reverse parking of an eighteen wheeler truck in Calais...
Sure you can install Steam manually - but I think you're probably seeing that'll be a bit of a headache for you...

Ok, so that's the interesting bit...
I ran my Steam launcher script to check the contents of the variables:
| Code: | | $STEAM_DEBUGGER "$STEAMROOT/$STEAMEXEPATH" "$@" |
corresponds to:
| Code: | STEAM_DEBUGGER=
STEAMROOT="${HOME}/.local/share/Steam
STEAMEXEPATH=ubuntu12_32/steam |
The STEAMEXEPATH is relative to the STEAMROOT - so you get:
| Code: | | ${HOME}/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam |
No DEBUGGER is specified by default
This is meat & potatoes ...
| Code: | file ${HOME}/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam
/home/robert_gentoo/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam: ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 3.2.32, BuildID[sha1]=967388e9fd4872b15d0db596cc6af57b6debce38, not stripped
|
So then we check what 32-bit system libraries Steam is linking against (that are not in steam-runtime):
| Code: | ldd -r /home/robert_gentoo/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_32/steam
linux-gate.so.1 (0xf76f7000)
libX11.so.6 => /usr/lib32/libX11.so.6 (0xf753e000)
librt.so.1 => /lib32/librt.so.1 (0xf7535000)
libm.so.6 => /lib32/libm.so.6 (0xf74e9000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib32/libdl.so.2 (0xf74e4000)
libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/5.3.0/32/libstdc++.so.6 (0xf736b000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib32/libpthread.so.0 (0xf734f000)
libc.so.6 => /lib32/libc.so.6 (0xf71a1000)
libxcb.so.1 => /usr/lib32/libxcb.so.1 (0xf717a000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xf76f8000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/5.3.0/32/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xf715f000)
libXau.so.6 => /usr/lib32/libXau.so.6 (0xf7159000)
libXdmcp.so.6 => /usr/lib32/libXdmcp.so.6 (0xf7152000) |
So make sure you've got multilib versions of:
| Code: | x11-libs/libX11
sys-libs/glibc
sys-devel/gcc
x11-libs/libxcb
x11-libs/libXau
x11-libs/libXdmcp |
Perhaps you didn't (  no really!! ) rebuild gcc as though it was a compiler upgrade (which is basically what you've done)...
| Code: | [ebuild R ] x11-libs/libXau-1.0.8::gentoo USE="-static-libs" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 289 KiB
[ebuild R ~] x11-libs/libXdmcp-1.1.2-r1::gentoo USE="-doc -static-libs" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 324 KiB
[ebuild R ] x11-libs/libxcb-1.11.1:0/1.11.1::gentoo USE="xkb -doc (-selinux) -static-libs {-test}" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 508 KiB
[ebuild R ] x11-libs/libX11-1.6.3::gentoo USE="ipv6 -doc -static-libs {-test}" ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 2,309 KiB
[ebuild R ~] sys-libs/glibc-2.22-r1:2.2::gentoo USE="(multilib) -debug -gd (-hardened) -nscd -profile (-selinux) -suid -systemtap -vanilla" 20,578 KiB
[ebuild R ~] sys-devel/gcc-5.3.0:5::gentoo USE="cxx doc fortran gcj go (multilib) nls nptl openmp sanitize (-altivec) (-awt) -cilk -debug (-fixed-point) -graphite (-hardened) -jit (-libssp) (-multislot) -nopie -nossp -objc -objc++ -objc-gc -regression-test -vanilla" 94,687 KiB |
I also presume you have the multilib USE flag set for gcc?!!

I actually don't think I have multilib explicitly set as a use flag - but I've got steam working anyway.
I used the command steam --reset, which accounts for the fact that steam always works on the first try of an install, and then for some reason its just working.
Thanks for your help Bob, I'll add in multilib to make.conf just incase. |
