Tried to run Team Fortress 2 with Mesa, got this error:
Required OpenGL extension “GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc” is not supported. Please install S3TC texture support.
Which one works with factory? I guess I will try the other one and see if it works…
I know driconf (which should be in obs) references that extension, but I am not sure if enabling it there will fix it. Worth a try.

Tried the other lib with the same issue.
Will see if I can force it enabled in dri configuration.
Not available for factory…
force_s3tc_enable=true steam
works.
Oh, excellent. I never knew that would work. Learn something new every day.
On that note I might see if I can make a package for driconf in factory.
force_s3tc_enable=true SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulseaudio steam
This requires pulseaudio to be set explicitly due to bug: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=792787
Same bug here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/221410/discussions/1/882965737456862913/
It is possible to set the launch options for each game on steam. For example, for TF2:
Library > right click on TF2 > Properties > Set Launch options
there you write:
force_s3tc_enable=true SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulseaudio %command%
with a bumblebee configuration:
force_s3tc_enable=true SDL_AUDIODRIVER=pulseaudio primusrun %command%
it can also be optirun but I think steam recommends primusrun
Hello guys,
I have the same problem with Left4dead 2. I set lunch options in library to force_s3tc_enable=true, but I still get “GL_EXT_texture_compression_s3tc” error. Any idea how to fix it?
Thank you
Instead of forcing s3tc as true, have you tried installing the open source implementation of S3TC?
It’s in the package libtxc_dxtn.
Almost all my games needed S3TC and this fixed it. Forcing the variable did make some games work, but many had corrupt graphics or still complained with the message you have.
Hope this helps.
Hi , I have it already installed, but I still have that error.
Problem solved, I don’t use the additional parameters right.
