Freezing entire system when starting on vulkan with linux

Hi, whenever i try starting the game on Vulkan my system freezes. I think i can see like the foreword and then the freeze happens. Tried OpenGL and that worked no problem, and i finished the demo (excellent game by the way, will purchase!)

My machine is running Manjaro, cpu 7700k, gpu 6800 xt.
KDE Plasma version 5.26, mesa 22.3, vulkan-radeon 22.3 kernel 6.1.
Forgot to mention Im on wayland, haven't tested X11.

Will happily provide anything else needed for troubleshooting.
Cheers

Under the "Device Groups" Chapter, if you're using RADV, it will say the name of your GPU and then just add "RADV" or something like "RADV POLARIS". If it doesn't say that , you're using AMDVLK (or AMDGPU-Pro, but for current purposes, that's close enough)

Also, as launch options one could add:

RADV_DEBUG=noibs VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=VK_LAYER_MESA_overlay %command%

For a nice graph with the GPU device used & driver and frametimes.

Alright, so here's a question for anyone currently using RADV:
Are you willing to install and try AMDVLK? The issue seems to not occur with AMDVLK, but it has not been tested on a lot of devices and distros, quite yet.

The game starts and works normally as far as I see here.

After the last stable update from valve Steam os 3.4.6 for Steam deck, in which they added a new mesa 23.1 driver, the game stopped working in vulkan mode.

We have a bunch of these threads, so hi, there. Has the recent demo update fixed this for you?

I'm seeing it entirely freeze on the main menu with both OpenGL and Vulkan on Steam Deck with the Native build, just seems entirely broken now in the new demo.

Can hear the music still going, but visually entirely frozen. It seems to happen as soon as I press a button, or move a joystick, until I do that you can see it's working. But as soon as you give input when you have the options list like new campaign, load game etc it freezes.

I tried then on my desktop Linux (Fedora KDE), tried loading with Vulkan and it instantly died with this error:

OpenGL has been fully untouched and should not be causing issues.

Try removing the entire Selaco folder and redownloading the demo

This was a fresh install. To test I just uninstalled again, went into the filesystem and the selaco-demov2-deck.ini and a .bak files still exists. So folder removed, installed again on Steam Deck and...it works.

So it's Valve's uninstall leaving files, but still...why would Selaco crash with those?

Glad it's fixed. We've heard this problem before and it's an odd one..

Thankfully this wont matter for the full game since it uses it's own file directory and files. Still a weird one though!
