[SOLVED]Steam GPU selection

Hi.

When I try to install steam its asking me which GPU package I would prefer. Which one should I choose ?

   1) lib32-nvidia-utils  2) lib32-vulkan-asahi  3) lib32-vulkan-broadcom  4) lib32-vulkan-dzn  5) lib32-vulkan-freedreno
   6) lib32-vulkan-gfxstream  7) lib32-vulkan-intel  8) lib32-vulkan-nouveau  9) lib32-vulkan-panfrost
   10) lib32-vulkan-powervr  11) lib32-vulkan-radeon  12) lib32-vulkan-swrast  13) lib32-vulkan-virtio

Re: [SOLVED]Steam GPU selection

going by your previous posts you have a 1050ti so you require the 580xx driver:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lib3 … 80xx-utils
install that first then try steam again, i dont use steam so have no idea about that side of it

Steam depends on a lib32-libgl provider, which the above mentioned package will satisfy, so yes this is the package you'll need to install.

Yeap, after installation of `lib32-nvidia-580xx-utils` steam didn't ask me to choose, its installed. Thanks a lot.
