'Why gl 32-bit doesn't work on archlinux, amd card?

$ glxinfo32 
name of display: :0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

I found this from steam "glxChooseVisual failed".

$ steam
...
glXChooseVisual failed
glXChooseVisual failedsrc/steamUI/Main.cpp (409) : Assertion Failed: Fatal Error: glXChooseVisual failed

glxinfo32 and other 32bit demos didn't work, but 64bit demos worked.

$ glinfo
GL_VERSION: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 21.3.3
GL_RENDERER: AMD RENOIR (DRM 3.42.0, 5.15.13-arch1-1, LLVM 13.0.0)
GL_VENDOR: AMD
...

$ glxinfo
name of display: :0
display: :0  screen: 0
direct rendering: Yes
server glx vendor string: SGI
server glx version string: 1.4
...

Here are some other errors.

$ glinfo32

freeglut (glinfo32):  ERROR:  Internal error <FBConfig with necessary capabilities not found> in function fgOpenWindow

I learnt that mesa 11.x.y causes segfault but mine is 21.3.3.

$ glxgears_fbconfig32 
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  glxgears_fbconfig32

I tried to reinstall mesa and other libs.

Solution 1:[1]

Not sure if this will help you, but I had lib32-libdrm-git and libdrm installed, which appeared to have different versions (2.4.109-1 and 2.4.66-1).

Try re-installing libdrm and lib32-libdrm.

Solution 2:[2]

Do you use a custom built llvm and not the standard-shipped-one? Seems that your lib32-mesa can't find fbconfig.
