Linux crash on load

[BtB]

Linux version crashing XOrg on loading, first test was an immediate crash, second loaded up to a sound of water(?) and an unresponsive mouse cursor before crashing.

Ubuntu 18.04 (LXDE)
NVIDIA 430.40 on GeForce 940M

First error was a failure to create private key, second was a segfault, both in the NVIDIA drivers

Am attempting to correct, and will keep you informed.

[BtB]

Rolled back driver to 364, game boots. Likely Linux error, but no other program reacted quite this way. Will report back if problem persists, but if anyone else has this issue, you might need to find different legacy drivers.

hmm, here i have no trouble with nvidia 430.40, quadro M1000M (laptop), on debian 9.9/xfce

as only change from driver defaults, i've enabled the full composition pipeline:
nvidia settings -> "X Server Disp config" -> Advanced -> Force full compo pipeline

[BtB]

If I ever need to upgrade the driver, I'll give that a try, thnks.

I'm having the same issue with Nvidia 430.26 drivers and a GeForce GTX 1060 on Ubuntu Budgie 18.04. I only recently upgraded to this driver, so I haven't tried many games with it yet, but I didn't experience this issue with Anodyne 2, which is another Unity game. Eliza not only crashes, but also crashes my Linux session.

[BtB]

Do you also have issues with locking/sleeping tossing an error? I think that driver has some compatibility issues.

[flesk]

No, locking/sleeping works just fine. I've downgraded to Nvidia 415.27, and I'm still experiencing the same issue. It seems to be with just this game specifically.

[flesk]

Someone found a workaround to the issue that also works for me:

https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5423#issuecomment-450768280

I already had vulkan-utils installed, but apparently they were not configured properly, as it turned out I always got the following warning on launching Steam:

Fatal : VkResult is "ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED" in /home/pgriffais/src/Vulkan/base/VulkanSwapChain.hpp at line 210

Which I had not noticed before, since I usually don't start Steam from a terminal.

I'm experiencing the same GDM (Whole desktop session) crash as @flesk on Ubuntu 19.04 with nvidia 440.26.

I use a gamemode script prior to launch which runs `vulkaninfo` and enables GPU performance options. Running the game with or without this script results in the same behaviour. I tried launching steam from the terminal, but I can't see any error. I'll need to pipe the logs out to file to hopefully get some details.

Here is the log from the gdm session backtrace that occurs when launching this game.
