I’ve been bashing my head into this for the past three days now, so I figured I’d throw it up here and see if anybody else has any insight. About two or three days back, I ran a system upgrade using yay (I don’t update as frequently as I should, but at least once in a given month), and as far as I’…

jfc, it was No Nachine!! I had it installed months ago but I was certain I had disabled it because I couldn’t get it to work reliably with Wayland, and just ended up using KDE’s built in RDP service. I just did sudo pacman -R nomachine, rebooted, and all is good! My system is so snappy again!! I st…

just watch any update mesa / steam / and so on [image] Mesa 25.2.7 Ships The Latest Open-Source OpenGL & Vulkan Driver Fixes [image] Valve's Open-Source Radeon Linux Driver "Love Song For Gamers With Old GPUs" As covered recently on Phoronix there has…

I have no clue what you mean by that/with those links, or how those articles are meant to help - my card isn’t old enough to be GCN 1, its an RX 6750 XT, that’s RDNA 2! I presume that is meant to be helpful, I just ain’t sure why or how! :sweat_smile:

i see this [image] mesmerus: glxinfo -B name of display: :1 failed to get driver name for fd 4 failed to get driver name for fd 5 glx: failed to create dri3 screen failed to load driver: radeonsi

Yes, I saw the same, and that’s where I knew I had a problem & why I included that already! Those links don’t help at all, those are all articles talking about mesa benefits coming soon for GCN architecture cards, while mine is RDNA 2, but as I also originally stated, mesa and xorg are up to date, …

[image] mesmerus: are you suggesting I try to downgrade steam and see if that changes anything? That won’t solve your issue. Vulkan isn’t even detected on your system. But as it is a dependency of Steam and you’ll need the [multilib] repos. [image] mesmerus: API: Vulkan Message: No Vulk…

That’s odd, I didn’t remove vulkan, at least not intentionally? lact is installed, and it is still showing the card, apparently. Here’s screenshots from the four sections. [Screenshot_20251113_182233] [Screenshot_20251113_182236] [Screenshot_20251113_182239] [Screenshot_20251113_182241] I hadn…

Following that link, I shouldn’t need SI or CIK support; as far as I’m aware, that pertains to GCN 1 and GCN 2 era cards, mine is much newer, being RDNA 2, and the only thing I’ve ever altered in /etc/default/grub was GRUB_TIMEOUT as I wanted the timeout to be 10 seconds instead of 5, just to give m…

mkinitcpio doesn’t showed up because EnOS uses dracut instead. Therefore, you shouldn’t really keep it installed and it is better to remove it again. Additionally, the grub command line parameter in /etc/default/grub doesn’t show the whole picture, as the drop-in configuration files within /etc/gr…

Hey OP, I’m getting nearly the exact same symptoms as you, namely the glxinfo -B and vulkaninfo errors. As far as I can tell, this also started happening to me after a routine package upgrade. I don’t have games on my system, but I can’t open Kitty terminal at all, and a select few Electron apps (S…

I’m getting the exact same problem on my PC, I also have an RX 6800 XT. If I run glxinfo -B or vulkaninfo as sudo, they work fine, but without sudo I see the same errors as you. I first noticed the problem trying to run blender, but if I launch blender with sudo it works fine. I suspect a recent o…

OpenGL using llvmpipe as renderer, ignoring RX 6750 XT?

This was the solution to my issue over here:

Thank you very much!

Edit: For those interested in this nomachine issue, here’s the temporary workaround and anticipated “fix” schedule:
