Apper lets me select which arch I want to install for. Trying to install a 32-bit version of an xorg package results in apt trying to remove the 64-bit one.

That's really weird. Do you have "multiarch-support" installed? Also, this one?

Do you have the "ia32-libs-multiarch" package by any chance? Sorry for the many package questions. It's just that I'm not used to having to go through so much trouble to find a 32-bit library. All of them are provided in a repository called [multilib] in Arch. |

I think libgl1-mesa-dri and its dependencies might have fixed it; I'm no longer getting an error when I try to start up PlayOnLinux. I'm going to give Steam a go.
Thank you very much for your help. 
EDIT: Steam works!
