I've been battling trying to get Steam running on Minx 19.1 (Tara). My install is fairly new, December 2018.
I attempted to follow these instructions: https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2233005
I did read there was a conflict between package versions (https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/comm ... 9_upgrade/) late last year but I believe that has presumably been solved now.
For whatever reason I simply do not have the /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa folder on my system so I get standard warning about the libGL library

Does anyone have any hints? My google-fu is failing and I'm running out of ideas
