Hey everyone,

I am hoping this information will help somebody in the future as I have been struggling with this issue for a little while now and could not find anything on Google.

The problem I was having started happening after tweaking my USE flags in my make.conf file. glxgears and glxinfo would no longer work with following
Code:
name of display: :0.0
Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig

As well as Steam kept crashing with the following
Code:
glXChooseVisual failed
glXChooseVisual failedsrc/steamUI/Main.cpp (388) : Assertion Failed: Error: glXChooseVisual failed
src/steamUI/Main.cpp (388) : Assertion Failed: Error: glXChooseVisual failed

Anyways I run an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 card and have finally narrowed it down to the minimal use flag. If you have this flag set you can avoid this problem by disabling the minimal use flag to x11-base/xorg-server
