steam client on debian stretch amd64 [SOLVED]

[Pug of War]

hello guys i just fresh installed debian stretch, installed the backports drivers, but cant install steam client, i tried several tutorials:
https://wiki.debian.org/Steam
https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers
https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-install-steam-client-on-debian-9-stretch-linux

i am using the 390.48 driver from backports

steam doesnt install from the provided .deb from steam, neither with apt install steam

do you guys have some ideas?

this is my log form steam app

Package libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 needs to be installed
Package libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 needs to be installed

Install the missing packages, try again?

nope, just cause inconsistency, the drivers were installed along with backports

I had a Debian Buster VM running so I tried installing Steam.

All I had to do:
- Add my user to the sudoers file. It would error when trying to install Steam as root.
- Add 'contrib non-free' (without ') to all lines that end in 'main' in /etc/apt/sources.list

And a few terminal commands:

# dpkg --add-architecture i386
# apt update && apt upgrade
# apt install Steam

Of course you have to install your Nvidia drivers also but you have that covered already.

I restarted the virtual machine before installing Steam because I then added my user to the sudoers file.

i tried that, but this gave me this error

Os pacotes a seguir têm dependências desencontradas:
steam:i386 : Depende: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386 mas não será instalado
Depende: libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 mas não será instalado
E: Impossível corrigir problemas, você manteve (hold) pacotes quebrados.

installing steam is like rolling a dice, on my previous install of debian it worked like a charm

No offense intended, but have you tried running Ubuntu or some derivate?

It's complaining about the GPU drivers. It's trying to install the 32bit open source MESA drivers but is unable to do so likely due to a conflict with the Nvidia drivers.

Make sure the Nvidia GPU drivers are properly working.

Nvidia drivers on Debian Stretch:
https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#stretch

tem que instalar o driver de 32-bit da nvidia também... não basta instalar o driver de 64-bit

^ This

Almost at the bottom of that page I linked:

"and if you need multiarch packages (i.e. i386 on amd64) - required for steam to work: "
# sudo apt-get install libwayland-client0:i386 libwayland-server0:i386
# svn-buildpackage --svn-ignore --svn-arch=i386 -us -uc -rfakeroot

NOTE: for the multiarch, for example on amd64 with i386, you must NOT install all the packages from the foreign architecture, but ONLY either libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 or nvidia-driver-libs-i386 depending on the branch, and their dependencies.
