This did help. It got rid of the error! No guarantees as of yet as to
whether my video games work or not, but doing the procedure as indicated
in the helpfile got rid of the OpenGL error message on the startup of
STEAM. It is gone now.

Title:
ldconfig problem with 64-bit nvidia driver packages
Driver packages are not multi-arch. The 64 bit package provides both 64
bit and 32 bit libraries. The empty alternative is meant to avoid that,
when nvidia is installed, users end up using nvidia's 64 bit libraries
and mesa's 32 bit libraries.
As for the NVIDIA Optimus case, when in power saving
@Alberto, sorry to confuse you.
I am using Bumblebee, but I have everything working now. The alternatives are
pointing to the Mesa GL libraries, nvidia-331 installed and
libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 installed (though it's not installed by default nor by
bumblebee, so I reported Bug #1383909 there).
But

Ok, you're right.
I thought that /usr/lib/nvidia-331-prime/ld.so.conf was used only for 64-bit,
but it is indeed used for 32-bit as well.
Same thing for /usr/lib/nvidia-331-prime/ld.so.conf, which point to both 64 and
32 bit mesa libraries.
As I said, you know more about this than me. :)
Sorry
@Alberto Milone, sorry to bother you, could you check this bug?
I was trying to understand why the NVIDIA driver package installs an empty
alt_ld.so.conf file.
Then I found the commit that added this change by you in Oneiric:
The default GL option for x86_64 is mesa because bumblebee selects it during
install, using update-alternatives.
But, for some reason, it doesn't do the same for i386.

I forgot to tell that I'm using Ubuntu 13.10 and NVIDIA 304 driver (plus
bumblebee).
Also, if I run:
$ sudo update-alternatives --config x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf
Then select the nvidia option. Then:
$ sudo ldconfig
And then reboot, I can't login. It stays in a black screen after logging in.
I've tested this a bit more.
The issue is a lot more serious than I thought!
The workaround provided by the bug reporter probably works for computers
using an NVIDIA card. And my fix would probably work too.
However, for computers with Hybrid graphics/NVIDIA Optimus (Intel+NDIVIA), like

I've looked at the source code of nvidia-graphics-drivers.
At around line 300 of debian/rules there is this code:
# ld.so.conf
dh_installdirs -p$(PKG_driver) $(ld_so_conf_dir)
echo $(PKG_libdir)
$(CURDIR)/debian/$(PKG_driver)$(ld_so_conf_path)

This issue appeared for me after upgrading to 14.04.
I had some driver issues after the upgrade and had to reinstall them.
After that, steam gave me the no direct glx error and games would not start.
The procedure described solved the issue.
