    Hey, I've been trying to install Steam, but it keeps returning this error message:
    [​IMG]
    As you can see, it claims that libcogl15 isn't installed when it clearly is.
    I'm not sure if its the same with the other packages, ill check that later.
    Plz help '-'

    Hello Nyap

    Have you downloaded Steam through the softwarecenter? You may download the .dpkg on steampowered.com
    I don't know the solution, i can only try to say what i would do.

    I would try to repair the packages
    sudo apt-get -f install

    Then i would update the system
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

    After that i would download steam.dpkg from steampowered.com, install with
    sudo dpkg -i steam*.dpkg

    You may also want to install the proprietary driver before installing steam, just follow https://elementaryforums.com/index....-driver-in-elementaryos-the-official-way.206/

    have you success now ?
