I may be mistaken, but at some point I believe that you will need vulkan drivers for your hardware - have you checked if they are available?

I could only find one linux package at the link you posted - steam_latest.deb

If you unpack and run this, it expects a multi-lib 32-bit/64-bit environment and vulkan drivers - tinycore does not have multi-lib, but it does have vulkan drivers for intel and radeon hardware.

If you use the wine extension to run the windows installer at the link you posted, it brings you to the steam logon - I do not have a steam logon so I stopped there, but things looked to be working (with vulkan drivers).

I only have intel hardware to test.

Xorg-7.7-3d contains /usr/local/lib/libvulkan_radeon.so

If you'd like to test, you can use vkcube and vulkaninfo from the vulkan-tools extension.

tc@box:~$ vkcube

Did you install Xorg-7.7-3d, graphics-KERNEL, the appropriate xf86-video-* extension and the appropriate graphics firmware extension?

I configured the TCL setup as follows,

Code: [Select]
$ tce-load -wi graphics-4.19.10-tinycore alsa-config Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm alsa pavucontrol
$ sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/dbus start
$ startx

steam; there are a lot of free games running linux,
and also in the process of providing serious support to linux.
I know it will take your time,
I want "Steam" to run on TCL.
thanks for your efforts in advance. :)

You need Xorg-7.7-3d, but you loaded Xorg-7.7

As stated previously, there are no plans to make a multi-arch version of tinycore.

At the moment steam needs multi-arch so it will not work.

You might be able to use the 32-bit version.
