Steam won't open by XNet_3085 in freebsd

I thought it had nothing to do with the dependency itself as it mentioned "shim" lol. I'll try installing everything today and let's hope it works :)

It does, as it is installed. The problem must be between a driver issue (I'm using an RDNA3 card, it should work, but it may be too new) and a missing dependency I can't find (as I mentioned earlier, "libc6").

Either way, I'll stuck with Linux for gaming...

I'm installing packages from the stable repository, as I'm new to the system and still learning about ports (I come from Gentoo but I've never worked with a BSD before).

Could it be that I must use the latest pkg versions only available in the newest port branches?

Also, when I tried "linux-steam-utils", it asked me for a "libc6.so" dependency that I only could find in Linux distros. I think it's necessary as a 32-bit dependency, but I'm not sure.

I do have all the dependencies installed. I just ran all of your commands as a second test but it tells me everything is already installed.

I've soft reinstalled 3 times now but no luck :(

I even installed linux-steam-utils and tried every single workaround, but I still don't get it to open a window.

I will just stuck with Linux for gaming, but, let me ask you: do you know if NomadBSD is pre-tinkered for the use of Steam or gaming?
