I can’t get Steam to run on Leap 16 beta, despite installing files noted in Leap 16 video from openSUSE Conference (grub2-compat-ia32 and selinux-policy-targeted-linux). There is one more thing to do, the presenter says, to get Steam to work. I don’t know how to do it.
What do I do to set ia32_emulation=1?
did you follow Steam - openSUSE Wiki ?
this does not really help, as Leap 16 doesn’t have steam natively
https://software.opensuse.org/package/steam
For 16.0 run the following as root:
zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/games:tools/16.0/games:tools.repo
zypper refresh
zypper install steam
that doesn’t help as a lot of 32bit dependencies are missing
https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Known_bugs_16.0
It’s been noted here that Steam doesn’t yet work due to missing 32bit dependencies.
At the present time the following is necessary to get steam to work.
Install:
grub2-compat-ia32
selinux-policy-targeted-gaming
then:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Edit the following line to read - GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=“ia32_emulation=1”
then:
Reboot
I’m referencing Steam flatpak.
This is not needed anymore, as there was a bug, which prevented this from getting added automatically.
