  • Have you checked for system updates?: [Yes/No] Up-To-Date

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen. Please link any large code pastes as a Github Gist
I attempted to launch Steam, but it refuses to go online at any time at all. Every network-related things don't work on Steam at all.

Here's what it says when I attempt to launch it.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Just boot up Steam on Manjaro Linux.

Hello @Max-Spec, can you check if running LANG=en_US.UTF-8 steam from an terminal has an effect?

If it does, please share the output of locale and locale -a. (from #3125)

MMax-Spec 2019-12-26 github

Nope, it didn't do anything.
Here's the output of the console:

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)

  Minor opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GLXCreateContext)

This is telling us that the OpenGL driver had a general failure.

Can you check if any 32 bit OpenGL application works like glxinfo32 from lib32-mesa-demos?

What video card(s) / driver version are you using?

MMax-Spec 2019-12-26 github

I have integrated graphics card.
It's "Intel 4 Series Chipset" as it says.
The glxinfo32:

Device: llvmpipe (LLVM 9.0, 128 bits) (0xffffffff) is a key detail here, it tells us that you're using mesa's faster software renderer and not actually using your video card to accelerate OpenGL. That chipset is near the least capable hardware that should be able to run Steam, but there's no particular reason why it shouldn't work.

Well, I still cannot really solve this one.
glxgears says this:
X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
Major opcode of failed request: 151 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 3 (X_GLXCreateContext)
Value in failed request: 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 23
Current serial number in output stream: 24

Nevermind. The issue was nvidia drivers since it was probably trying to use something that my PC didn't have (NVIDIA graphics card etc.) so I've removed it and it began to work.

Nothing extracted yet.
