steam displays black box after verification test on box86, Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS multiarch arm64 armhf #698
Comments
I might have a feeling that the new login UI is Chromium based, at least that's what I have heard. Maybe that is the cause? |
If that is the case, that will be unfortunate, as it will surely needs the 64bits part of steam then (that for now still doesn't work with box64) |
I am looking though an
.. yet:
What is interesting is that it seems to be looking everywhere else but here to find it. Same with the other module. |
Not sure if I'm going about this the right way or not, but I placed the i386 libraries
Not sure if any of this helps at all or whether it's a red herring itself. |
I successfully cleared the error:
by moving an i386 version of Didn't change anything else though.. still hangs with black box. How do I verify if the issue is Chromium as was suggested earlier? |

Thank you. Yes, I can confirm that worked and now I am presented with the login screen. |
Ah good. I'll add this in the steam script and in the README! |
Keep in mind I have no idea for how long that will work, as Valve might remove that. |
@ptitSeb @Hacker1245 Thanks! Yes, I know they may change this at any time. Really appreciate your help!! I'll see about contributing to the project. |
Continuing my discovery of new or interesting issues, I wasn't able to find a solution yet to this issue. After executing steam with newly compiled box86+box64 running on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS multiarch with arm64 and armhf, steam will go through the verification test (displayed properly), then move on load. When it fully loads, there is just a blank black box displayed with nothing in it.
Steam is started with the following:
I've tried using NOGTK=1, doesn't seem to make a difference. I've had to add the libpng12.so.0 to EMULATED_LIBS because steam was complaining about not finding that, even though it was where it was supposed to be from
sudo make install
. Adding that path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH didn't seem to help, so I had to add it to EMULATED_LIBS. Anyway, I suspect all this is a red herring.I found ..
.. to imply I was possibly missing some libraries. I found some similar (not box86/arm related) postings where users installed
libgail-common
andlibatk-adaptor
, which didn't seem to help me. I suspect these messages are related to why it's displaying a black box, but I'm not sure what else may need to be done.steamwebhelper.sh
messages just repeat forever, while steam is still running with the black box displayed. I need to kill the process to end it.Any help would be appreciated as always. Thank you!
