Hi
Hmmm, what graphics card and desktop environment (since it say’s it can’t connect to X)… not running wayland?

Do files exist in /home/rhpcir-PC/.local/share/Steam/ since it can’t find steam_msg.sh?

Just installed and tested here on a MacBook3,1 with intel GPU and GNOME DE, starts up ok.

Hi

can you also try to run

find ~/.steam/root/ \( -name "libgcc_s.so*" -o -name "libstdc++.so*" -o -name "libxcb.so*" -o -name "libgpg-error.so*" \) -print -delete

then try to run steam again?

Hi
No issues here;

Hi
Looks like you have a faulty install. So you installed the openSUSE Steam rpm, then ran steam from the command line? I would look at deleting the ~/.local/share/Steam direcory and run the steam command again.

You can also try to reset your steam install - run the following command:

steam --reset

Hope this helps you. Cheers !
