When will Steam stop using i386 packages? (self.linux_gaming)

Almost every distro I've used so far ends up having problems installing Steam due to mismatching i386 packages. I've heard that they're being removed upstream. Anyone happen to know a timeline?

Weird, it had crazy lag for me. I will have to try again.

There's a weird issue with VR on Linux where it doesn't use the right GPU profile for some reason. A pretty easy workaround for that is to use CoreCTRL to manually set the GPU profile to high.

Awesome, I will give that a try. Thank you very much.
