 @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 |
|  pharo joined the room. | 20:40:29 |
 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
