Hi,

So my system died on me last night have I was playing around with something, I reinstalled the operating system and now can not get the this error to go away, I sware I have installed all the 32 bit stuff, but given I am getting this message I gather I have not. 

 

So where do I start? I have also installed Steam and when I go to load it I get the following message 

 

Error: You are missing the following 32-bit libraries, and Steam may not run:
libGL.so.1

Yet if I locate the pakage I get 

morrosis@Morrosis:~/Downloads$ sudo locate libGL.so.1
[sudo] password for morrosis: 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1.2

More details, Debian wheeze, 750ti nvidia 

So what am I missing? 

 

Thanks

You need to install the 32bit libraries that come with your accelerated video driver.

Say if you installed the nVidia proprietary drivers thru packages, that's probably libgl1-nvidia-glx:i386 and libgl1-nvidia-glx-i386 packages, optionally libnvidia-compiler:i386, libnvidia-ml1:i386 and nvidia-vdpau-driver:i386 too, I hope I'm missing none, and got it right for Wheezy.

But it depends on both hardware, driver and Linux distribution release, that's why the PlayOnLinux message cannot be much more specific.
