Steam no se inicia en ubuntu 18.04

[darkboy646]

Hola a todos.

Desde hace unos dias he estado instalando steam en mi equipo, pero en todos los intentos nunca se ejecuta, solo se abre un cuadro de actualizacion y se cierra al instante. Intente ejecutar el programa desde la terminal estas son las lineas que arroja;

Looks like steam didn't shutdown cleanly, scheduling immediate update check

Estas usando el .deb de steam o desde en centro de software??

Si estas en ubuntu instale steam con el comando:

sudo apt install steam-installer

Hola!!

Ya lo instale de las dos formas

[Angelo]

La app de steam que está en el centro de software debería abrir el instalador ¿tampoco funcionó desde la terminal como te sugieren arriba? Sino funcionó así, intenta con flatpak:

ubuntu 18.04

even if the error isn't caused by this, you should consider upgrading to 20.04

SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred
X Error of failed request: GLXBadContext
SteamUpdateUI: An X Error occurred

That error means you're likely missing OpenGL 32bit libs...

Try this to ensure it's available for both the Intel iGPU and the Nvidia dGPU:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386
sudo apt install --reinstall nvidia-xxx

(where xxx is the currently installed version)

Also you should go into the Nvidia control panel and find a setting where you can choose to use the Nvidia gpu for everything. That should help ensure steam is running in the stronger gpu.
