I'm on 18.04 and I just installed cuda-11, which required the 450 drivers, and I was wondering why I couldn't find the i386 version of the new packages.

I am very unhappy because I can't play games on my machine on my machine. I'm missing this library: libnvidia-gl-450:i386

Is their any way to download this package? Or any way to be able to use both cuda-11 AND steam on my machine?

Hit the same issue (different scenario though, trying to install Blizzard Battle.net), and couldn't find a direct solution.

I've installed my nvidia 450 driver from here: http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/ubuntu1804/x86_64/, and apparently it doesn't contain a variant for i386.

The alternative source of drivers is: https://launchpad.net/~graphics-drivers/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
This one has i386 version of libnvidia-gl package but only for driver version 440 (as of this post written - 4-Jul-2020).

The only solution that worked for me, is completely remove driver and packages related to driver version 450, and install nvidia-driver-440.

Package libnvidia-gl-440:i386 works for the same purpose for me.
