I have a Debian Sid guest running in Virtualbox (on a Debian host), where I installed the steam package from the non-free repository.
When I try to run steam, I get the following errors: libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast I found some other posts regarding this error message (e.g.'[Steam not opening in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS]') ... but none of them are about virtualbox, and they don't have answers that fix the problem I'm having. I have also tried using the .deb file provided from the steam website and ran into the same problem. Most of the other 'solutions' online suggest doing the following: rm ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/i386/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 rm ~/.steam/steam/ubuntu12_32/steam-runtime/amd64/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 ... and then running steam like: LD_PRELOAD='/usr/$LIB/libstdc++.so.6' DISPLAY=:0 steam ... but none of this works for me, and I get the same error even after removing the libraries from the steam directory. firmware-amd-graphics, libgl1-mesa-dri and other 3D rendering libraries are installed and working correctly on both the host and guest, so that's not causing the problem. I think the problem might actually have something to do with the fact that VirtualBox uses this virtual video card for the guests. When I run lspci from within the guest, this is the graphics card that shows up: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: InnoTek Systemberatung GmbH VirtualBox Graphics Adapter The actual video card, as displayed on the host is: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Topaz XT [Radeon R7 M260/M265 / M340/M360 / M440/M445] (rev c1) which uses the amdgpu drivers. I can't find solutions online that specifically address running steam on Debian *within Virtualbox* ... Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this error, and get steam running inside a VM?
