Steam fails to render with NVIDIA binary driver
Closed, InvalidPublic

Description

libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast

Happens independent of configured settings in Linux Steam Integration (before starting Steam)

Event Timeline

If there was a kernel update then you should reinstall the binary driver. Other solution is to install the 32bit driver if you haven't.

You don't need to re-install the binary driver, we immediately rebuild the drivers when we do a new kernel update, so it'd be part of the update.

Seen this issue before, install -32bit equivelant: https://wiki.solus-project.com/Steam

Thanks, it works after installing the 32-bit driver. The solution is not immediately obvious though. Is there something planned to simplify the experience for the user?
