Steam client doesn't think I have direct rendering, which I do.

Likely duplicate of #3273. @shoof, if you read through 3273 and check your stdout do you see similar message about libgcc issues?

Sshoof 2014-07-03 github

I don't have any of those errors on the console

I removed the libgcc_s.so.1 as suggested in the other thread but it didn't make a difference. I don't have a libstdc++.so.6 to remove.

I did all these things with a fresh install of steam and I still don't have direct rendering.

I also tried:

That command ran with nothing else happening.

If you set up LD_LIBRARY_PATH to use the Steam runtime binaries (as done in steam.sh) and then do your glxinfo test does it report direct rendering?

Sshoof 2014-07-03 github

That fails with errors similar to #3273

I did
mv /home/shoof/.steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6{,.disable}

And now steam is starting without the direct rendering error.
So this does appear to be a duplicate of #3273 , for me the offending lib was in usr/lib instead of lib.

Thanks, closing as a duplicate.
