 |
|
After an update the steam tray icon stopped showing up, and alerts triggered by steam also stopped working (for example when playing Dota2 and a match is found it usually sends an alert that displays from the tray in the top right corner).
I'm not sure if it was a steam update or some update on my system, but steam is being launched with the steam_runtime. The window manager I'm using is i3, and other tray icons are working just not steams. I tried temporarily removing my i3status config file so the default settings are used to make sure it's not just a bug with my config file.
Also, I'm launching steam with LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/lib32/opengl/nvidia/lib" since it stopped working completely a while back and someone posted this as the solution. But I've been launching it this way for a few months and the tray icon still worked before.
How can I diagnose this problem? |

I have the same problem. I think it started when dbus got upgraded to 1.10, running steam from the command line I see a warning related to dbus.

If this had been working and now isn't (and you have already downgraded dbus to 1.10.6), I would do a emerge --update --emptytree @world. That usually solves my problems.
