Issue trying to launch Steam (non flatpak)

Hi,

Previously I had not launched Steam at all. When I launch Steam it checks for updates, and then nothing.

When I run steam from the terminal I get:

Couldn't import apt, please install python3-apt or update steamdeps for your distribution.

Looks like steam didn't shutdown cleanly, scheduling immediate update check

I was lucky to change my nvidia gtx to a radeon rx 5600 xt, I uninstalled in yast software all nvida pakages coming from the Nvida repo, and then disabled that repo. The new card seems to be working ok, so I do not know if this is related to the issue with Steam.

Hi fbm224,

I recommend cross-posting this in the openSuse Forum. This issue is most likely not related to KDE and this forum is rather new and has not many users yet. You have a much better chance having this resolved if you cross-post this in the openSuse forum.
If you have already, or when you do please link it here.

If I remember correctly Steam is still 32 bit and needs all sorts of 32 bit libraries (like OpenGL 32 drivers), maybe you are missing them?

Thank you, I don’t know what I was thinking.
