doh, since you mentioned ldconfig looking for mesa libs before nvidia i checked out my /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ and found, it's my fault:
i had a conf file named steam.conf with /usr/lib32 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gallium-pipe inside . removing that file and running ldconfig again as root solved the problem it was a PEBKAC issue :-( Thank you for your support Cheers Samuele -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1307466 Title: nvidia-prime problems with steam To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-prime/+bug/1307466/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
