A blog to compile what I have learned (and what I am learning) about Mandriva (and GNU/Linux in general) since 2009, when I migrated. Current distros I'm using: OpenMandriva Lx 4.2, Mageia 7, PCLinuxOS, MX 19, and Elive 3.

Steam woes in OpenMandriva.... Again!
Steam updated today and, as a nasty surprise, I hit the same problem I had before with it.
I tried the solution here, but it was not working this time: the code reverted to its original form, preventing the Steam runtime to work.
Then, I realized that I was including the brackets in the code.... Stupid mistake.
I removed them and, voila, Steam unpacked the runtime and opened the user interface.
