I am having trouble opening the Steam client after I have already installed it. I am using a Raspberry Pi 4 running Ubuntu 20.10 64-bit. I have installed Steam directly from their website. When I try to open steam, it says:
Steam needs to install these additional packages: libgl1-mesa-dri:i386, libgl1:i386, libc6:i386
and asks for my password. I put it in, but now it says:
..........
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package libgl1-mesa-dri:i386
E: Unable to locate package libgl1:i386
E: Unable to locate package libc6:i386
Press return to continue:
I press the return key, it starts running, but then it stops loading and a window pops up that says:
You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run: libc.so.6
What should I do? I just started using Ubuntu this past week.
You can use Steam (and some x86 software) with Box86 (https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86).
You also can use PiKISS (https://github.com/jmcerrejon/PiKISS) to run some extra software, and should help you a lot as well.
You can see Steam in action in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0XImOEgVts
This video also shows it, with some extra information and examples of games running: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkTbvknZQKU
In the description of this 2nd video, you see the following commands:
sudo apt install linux-cpupower
sudo cpupower frequency-set --governor performance
sudo apt install libsdl2-dev libsdl2-image-dev libsdl2-mixer-dev libsdl2-ttf-dev libsdl2-2.0-0
According to it, they were used to make Doom3 run on Raspberry Pi.
Remember, this is all very beta stuff, even if it is minimally functional. You may have to make some compromises to get something running, or it may not run at all.
Sometimes, the compromise is in performance.
