Hi all, I want to play my games by using optirun to run them with my external graphic card.
I change "Set Launch Options" but it doesn't work for me. How can I do ?

System: Ubuntu 16.04
Graphic Card: GTX870M

In addition, my games are running smoothly on integrated graphic card.

I wrote "Set Launch Options many things to run:

LD_PRELOAD="libpthread.so.0 libGL.so.1" __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 optirun %command%

vblank_mode=0 optirun %command%

optirun %command%

primusrun %command%

What happens when you use the launch options?

Actually nothing, when I press the play button, steam displays near the game header "Running" but after 1-2 seconds running header goes away and game is not running. Also, there is no error messages on the screen.

If you run Steam from a terminal do you get any interesting spew in the terminal window?

There are several open issues and several closed issues with steamui load errors, you might want to check them to see if any apply.

yep I know that there are many issues with steamui.so load error but my problem is going on. I added i386 lib with "dpkg --add-architecture i386"

Hello @EmreOvunc, are you still experiencing this issue on an up to date system?

It's been three years, I can't re-test .
