 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | whoa, amdgpu just crashed a game for the first time in quite a while for me | 17:23:22 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | big scary page fault message in the log | 17:23:35 |

One thing I will note is that Steam's stdout/stderr in a terminal shows this:
Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_surface'.
Vulkan missing requested extension 'VK_KHR_xlib_surface'.
BInit - Unable to initialize Vulkan!
set VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/run/opengl-driver/share/vulkan/icd.d/radeon_icd.x86_64.json before launching Steam and see if that fixes it | 18:28:14 |

(I'm not suggesting using this as a permanent fix, I'm just suggesting testing with it to diagnose the real problem) | 18:29:45 |
 @slabity:matrix.org | Nah, I think that's a red herring now. Honestly it kind of seems random. Most of the time it fails and then it randomly succeeds. I get that message even on success | 18:31:13 |

(I'm not suggesting using this as a permanent fix, I'm just suggesting testing with it to diagnose the real problem) I just remember fixing that... | 20:01:42 |
| pimeys | something in here https://git.sr.ht/~pimeys/nixos/tree/plasma/item/desktop/default.nix#L63 | 20:03:31 |
| pimeys | adding the vulkan stuff explicitly fixed it | 20:03:41 |
| pimeys | at least validation layers and extension layer | 20:03:54 |
| @slabity:matrix.org | Yea, that env variable does not get rid of the Vulkan errors on Steam. | 20:04:13 |
| pimeys | also remember if you recently upgraded your kernel to reboot | 20:04:46 |
| @slabity:matrix.org | Wait, are the vulkan-* packages not part of the opengl setup? | 20:04:49 |
| pimeys | yeah I found that from some issue | 20:05:02 |
| pimeys | it's a bit weird but this fixed it for me | 20:05:07 |
| @slabity:matrix.org | Yea, I tried a fresh restart as well | 20:05:16 |
| @slabity:matrix.org | The odd thing is that sometimes it fails, sometimes it works, and sometimes it works but it won't let me open up the friends-list or other things. | 20:05:41 |

 K900 | That is definitely not necessary | 21:03:27 |
| K900 | Definitely not vulkan-loaders | 21:03:29 |
| K900 | Possibly the validation layers catch some API misuse | 21:03:37 |
| K900 | But even that is ehhh | 21:03:40 |
| K900 | vulkan-extension-layer shouldn't do anything on any Mesa driver as they already implement all the extensions it provides natively | 21:04:23 |
| @slabity:matrix.org | What I'm curious about is how many people are experiencing this issue. I literally cleaned my entire Steam installation and problem persisted so I'm very curious what's different on my end that is causing this. | 21:14:05 |
 @multisn8:matrix.org | (fwiw haven't gotten anything like this using the proprietary Nvidia driver and a clean-slate install recently) | 21:30:10 |
| @nuko:shimeji.cafe |
nvidia
cant call any crashes random with them involved

| miyoku157 | Hi, I'm doing a setup for multiple users. And I have a question about something i didn't find.
I try to set Hyprland as WM for me and KDE for the second user.
I thought doing that thanks to the home-manager; but i must say i don't really have example of how to do it. Do you have idea of how to do that?
And also, I'm used to the console, move through linux, but the other user not at all (that's why i'm setting a easier WM) but he's also a gamer. Is KDE a good choice for that? or is it to greedy in performance (in general i help to setup the game with wine or proton). Do you have any advice for the WM? | 17:24:28 |
