Hello @cnwz, what video card / driver version are you using? Can you check if any 32 bit opengl application like glxinfo from mesa-utils:i386 works?

Hello @cnwz, what video card / driver version are you using? Can you check if any 32 bit opengl application like glxinfo from mesa-utils:i386 works?

Intel Graphics 620 and NVIDIA GeForce MX150. Thinkpad T480. And driver is the latest version.
I have no idea about 32 bit opengl application.
Application list is here list.txt.Thx

It seems like graphics support on your system is not working. Please run glxinfo and post the output. Have you installed the nvidia driver? If you have upgraded your system to 19.10 this might help.

glxinfo.txt.
I've try to run steam today and up-to-date and it's still not running.

Hello @cnwz, 440.33.01 is a nVidia Cuda driver version, and you've encountered #5778. The lack of 32 bit userspace support is a video driver packaging issue.

You could give https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5778#issuecomment-575334890 a try.

Closing as a duplicate.
