Transition Matrix Help

I was given a transition matrix R and I have to find the steady state vector of that. I did the first step, which is to do R - the identity matrix. This is what I got (it's in table form just so you can tell the numbers apart more easily...it's a thumbnail so you can click it to make it larger and more readable).

Now, I know that in order to find a steady state vector I have to do this matrix multiplied by column vector [x1...x9] to get the column vector [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0].

I'm just confused as to how to find the x1 through x9 because there are so many equations.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!
