Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

Hello! As of the last week or so, Steam has begun crashing on my Nvidia/Intel hybrid-GPU system, with the following error trace:

src/vgui2/src/surface_linux.cpp (1954) : glXChooseVisual failed
src/vgui2/src/surface_linux.cpp (1954) : glXChooseVisual failed
src/vgui2/src/surface_linux.cpp (1954) : Fatal assert; application exiting
src/vgui2/src/surface_linux.cpp (1954) : Fatal assert; application exiting

I've found a good deal of other posts with the same issue, though none of them seem to address the problem for me. Key things I've done are to verify all packages with `pacman -Qkk` (ensuring the ones with modifications are ones I'd expect, or at least not graphics-related), and reinstalling all 32-bit packages via `pacman -Qqs lib32 | pacman -S --asdeps -`. No dice.

As mentioned in the post title, I've tested a variety of other OpenGL applications, including `eglgears_wayland`, `glxgears`, and `glxinfo`, none of which do anything immediately suspicious.

Interestingly, I've also found that

__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia steam

(or launching via `prime-run`, which sets the same env var) allows Steam to start normally. Conversely, using this to force the `mesa` vendor library causes the same error, so presumably that's the default.

Is this behavior in any way expected? If not, is there any OpenGL information I can provide that might help diagnose it?

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

What's the actual intel GPU? On an educated guess, get rid of xf86-video-intel and all configurations referencing it should that be installed for some reason.

Maybe throw in a xorg log and

glxinfo -B #mesa-utils

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

I'm running Wayland (Hyprland specifically), so no Xorg logs here — can I look somewhere else, maybe for Xwayland logs?

My Intel GPU, per `lspci`, is a `VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation CometLake-H GT2 [UHD Graphics] (rev 05)`.

❯ glxinfo -B

I don't actually have `xf86-video-intel` installed, so that's probably not the issue smile

No, but please try the behavior on xorg (steam runs on xwayland anyway, you'd likely also get a relevant xorg log from that) - openbox or icewm will do, no need to install plasma or so wink

Also

glxinfo
glxinfo -b
__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia glxinfo
__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia glxinfo -b

resp. if you're concerning a 32bit game, use glxinfo32 instead.

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

I come from an i3 background, so I opted for that rather than Openbox/IceWM. First observation: under Xorg, if only `__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia` is set, Steam and `glxinfo` crash with the following error:

X Error of failed request:  BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  156 (NV-GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  6 ()
  Value in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  96
  Current serial number in output stream:  96

However, they succeed under `prime-run`, so that's what I'll be using from here on.

Interestingly, the Xorg logs generated while launching Steam are the same with or without `prime-run`:

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

i3 sometimes does quirky things with graphics, please test with openbox or icewm that don't change graphics setup .

Please post the outputs of

$ pacman -Qs mesa
$ pacman -Qs llvm
$ vulkaninfo --summary    #comes_with_vulkan-tools
$ glxinfo -B

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

I probably didn't make that clear in my replies, sorry — Steam crashes in the same way when run normally, and succeeds under `prime-run`. i.e. no difference from the situation under Xwayland.

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

Hello,
I have the same problem after doing a global update this morning.
In particular, I updated the kernel (I use linux-zen).
Have you been able to solve the problem other than running steam with prime-run?

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

Do you also run an intel/nvidia hybrid system? Same cometlake chip?

And other GL clients work fine, only steam is affected?

Also why's steam/proton not running on dxvk?
Do you use https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Steam/ … _emulation ?

In particular, I updated the kernel (I use linux-zen).

Did you test the LTS kernel?

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

In steam output i got this:

this error is after upgrade lib32-llvm-libs 19.1.6-1

revert to older package lib32-llvm-libs 18.1.8-1


Now lib32-llvm-libs 19.1.6-1 - not available

Seems like lib32-llvm-libs was update to 19.1.6-1 at some point and revert to 18.1.8-1, but I dont know why.

Do you also run an intel/nvidia hybrid system?

Yes.

Same cometlake chip?

Nope, Coffe Lake, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750

And other GL clients work fine, only steam is affected?

Yes.

Also why's steam/proton not running on dxvk?

Proton/DXVK games runs fine. It's just steam when running with intel integradted graphics.

Issue resolved before I can.

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

That was a packaging bug with the llvm-libs and likely the actual cause of the underlying issue -- for you.

Please mark as [SOLVED] by editing the title and potentially shortening it a bit if necessary.

The thread originates 28th Nov and the OP is LRitzdorf who hasn't posted since 29th Nov
The llvm situation would be very recent and unrelated noise.

Ah whoops, need to pay more attention, though still recovering from a somewhat hefty fever over new years so I totally have excuses tongue

*lol*

I caught something right around christmas and spend some time porting phototonic to qt6 (and later cleaning up code and getting it some modern features and fixing bugs and…) because I didn't trust my brain enough to risk other peoples systems to it. Got an infection and turned it into a holiday project for christmas. Like lemon juice.

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

Yeah, the issue persists for me. No new updates — I think I've tested just about everything I can earlier in this thread, unfortunately.

Re: Steam: "glXChooseVisual failed," other OpenGL software unaffected

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=302138 looks related - it's also affecting cometlake, nvidia works fine, intel on wayland doesn't - though inteo on x11 seems to be no problem what would be different from your situation.

Did you test the LTS kernel (or 6.11.7 for that matter)?
