Installing Vulkan

Hello, I am struggling to get Vulkan to work on my laptop.
I'm using an i5-7200U (so Intel HD Graphics 620) and running Ubuntu 18.04.1.
Could someone give me detailed instructions (basically ELI5) how to get it to work?

This should do the trick:

$ sudo apt-get install libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386 mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386

Edit:
In case you want to test if it works

$ sudo apt-get install vulkan-tools $ vulkan-cube

this works for me on Ubuntu 18.04 Intel Graphics 620:

$ sudo apt install vulkan-utils mesa-vulkan-drivers $ vulkaninfo $ vulkan-smoketest

On Mint 18 ( based on Ubuntu ~18), the corresponding Xorg.conf wasn't created; `vulkan-smoketest` would abort, complaining about DRI3 support.

This arch wiki section proved useful:

Please note that the Xorg.conf.d may reside at /usr/share/X11 instead of /etc/X11.

What if I have Ubuntu 22.04.4, an i5-3210M CPU, and a Mesa Intel HD Graphics 4000? I tried the command and it didn't work for me.
