Steam will not run - wyldekey - 09-30-2015

I just installed Linux Lite 2.6 on my son's computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. He has previously run L.L 1.06 on this machine for the last 2 years and Steam worked pretty well on it. I installed the proprietary Nvidia graphics driver, but Steam still will not launch. I also tried reinstalling it from a .deb file, and I've searched the internet with no answer. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Please try to run steam from the terminal and post the output (remember to use the quote tag). I'm positive there's just some library missing.

I entered "steam" in terminal and this is what came back:

Re: Steam will not run - wyldekey - 09-30-2015

Well, this is odd. I opened synaptic to uninstall steam and discovered that the steam launcher was there, but 'steam' was NOT installed. I installed it, but still can't find a way to launch it.
Maybe I'll reboot and try again.

I'm running the 32 bit version, too.

Re: Steam will not run - Valtam - 09-30-2015

On the 32bit, Steam is already installed. No need to install anything else.

Re: Steam will not run - wyldekey - 10-01-2015

I completely uninstalled Steam, then reinstalled it. It's in the menu under Games, but it just won't launch.
It looks like all dependencies are installed.

Re: Steam will not run - Valtam - 10-01-2015

Uninstall it again. Then remove the .steam folder from your home folder. Then install 'steam-launcher' (and nothing else) from Install/Remove Software. Then start it in a terminal as: /usr/bin/steam %U and paste the output using the # [ code ] tags.

Re: Steam will not run - wyldekey - 10-01-2015

OK, before I saw your last post I used the Steam .deb installer I downloaded from the Valve website to remove Steam. I then opened the terminal and did: sudo apt-get install steam. Then went to menu>games and clicked on Steam, and it opened and downloaded updates and then was able to log in to my son'e account. It seems to be working now!
Thanks for the responses.

Re: Steam will not run - unclebaldie - 10-08-2016

yep, getting the same error as Loufadoros.
Running LL 3.2Beta, 64bit.
'Menu/Settings/Install drivers' does nothing.
