Hii guys i downloaded steam on my linux mint using the deb package on the official steam website, i successfully did it and i did manage to download my first game. But when i was downloading it, some of its game files got apparently corrupted? So i tried validating its game files in hopes of them being redownloaded in non-corrupt form, however after that it the validating process just stopped??
I have some suspicions that the reason the validation process got fucked over was because i had the system monitor application open, because in the steam website it said "not to validate game files while running system extensive stuff" in the background. But idk if running the system monitor is actually system extensive, i'd even say that theres a possibility that the validation thing failed because all the cpus in my laptop were genuinely nearing to 100 😭 but i digress ig..
What i did next was i refreshed/removed the download cache in steam and then closed the application after, and then after that i started to get the libc.so.6 error
"you are missing the following 32-bit libraries and Steam may not run: libc.so.6"
After that i tried using the find and locate command in the terminal, the find command couldnt locate the libc.so.6 file--but somehow, according to the locate command its inside /user/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu, .local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/... Etc. etc., i also used the "sudo updatedb" command
Idk what im doing wrong 😭, i think my laptop has sustained some sort of damage due to me abruptly and forcefully shutting it down while it was doing its reading and writing which caused my previous linux mint zena to die so i had to reinstall a new linux mint.....
