So this has gotten very strange since I tried this…
Firstly, I disabled all extra monitors except for my primary, and noticed it was hitching around ever ~2s or so.
I can see this reflected in my system’s CPU usage in system monitor.
journalctl --since “1 minute ago” and the xorg log shows it trying to connect one of my displays repeatedly.

When I unplug said monitor, the hitching stops and it seems to stop filling the log with these messages. What’s interesting to note is that this monitor is the only one running off of a displayport to HDMI adapter.
It would seem now that VKMARK runs successfully and Cities crashes (which is progress I guess lol.)
I tried to run Satisfactory, a game that I know has Vulkan support, and I got this message when trying to launch the game using Vulkan. It would also crash when using no launch options, or if I chose PROTON_USE_WINE_D3D=1
. This leads me to believe the issue may be deeper than just the chose graphics mode.

I tried running retroarch in Vulkan mode, but it would crash instantly. OpenGL works fine however.

This log is telling me there is an Issue with X.
At this point I don’t really know where to step forward aside from a clean install. Something seems to be very wrong with my GPU drivers in general. I’ve not really had issues like this on vanilla Arch, is there something I am missing that is specific to Endeavour?
