[Solved] Session restart/crash with 3D OpenGL games

About a month or so ago I had an issue with OpenMW crashing my session (flash through tty and I'm presented with the sddm login screen), which I chalked up to issues with the engine itself, and due to lack of time dropped it. I wanted to play a bit now, so I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.

OpenTuxKart is also not starting, with "X connection to :0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)" as final output. The same is happening with Torchlight 2, but OpenRA runs okay - this is why I think there's something wrong when 3D is involved.

My machine is a X230 Thinkpad with an i5-3320M CPU (Intel HD Graphics 4000), and X11 session with Plasma/KDE. All those games were working about 6 months ago.

I think some update had changed something, but as I don't have much time for games, the issue went unnoticed for some time.

Glxgears is working as expected, and glxinfo output seems okay.

If I can supply additional information or run other tests, please let me know.

Please post xorg log and the outputs of

$ lspci -k
$ glxinfo -B
$ pacman -Qs xf86

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

Re: [Solved] Session restart/crash with 3D OpenGL games

Does removing xf86-video-intel  help?

Re: [Solved] Session restart/crash with 3D OpenGL games

If not, please post the xorg log that covers the crash (Xorg.0.log.old, there's likely a backtrace at the bottom)
