[SOLVED] Steam core dumping every time I boot it up

dazpe · 2025-04-08 16:44:17

Wednesday April 9th, 00:07: I updated the given code in code blocks as requested :)
Wednesday April 9th, 19:20: Fixed it by changing this

nvidia_drm modeset=1 nvidia_drm fbdev=1

into this

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1

Thank you so much to those who helped me. This issue was a huge win (and relief) for me.

I wasn't even planning on creating an account for this but here I am.

Before I write my issue I want to provide some context. I switched to Linux from Windows 11 on Friday. To learn programming. Proper desktop development. I have been, quite honestly, non-stop setting up and continuously fixing every single issue that came, one after the other. First were the drivers, took me over 30 hours to set em up with zero experience on Linux and with an ancient GPU (770) with legacy drivers. Sure now I can install them non-problem but before that it was constantly researching, reading, reading the wiki, forums, threads, etc. Then it was screen tearing, missing animations, turned out KDE does NOT play nice with NVIDIA which in turn I clean reinstalled (third time then) with Cinnamon. Now I'm in a very comfy spot with my configuration: everything was fixed. But when I tried installing Steam to play some games, did not work, got the flatpak alternative as well, didn't work. Both failed, both gave me GTK2 and GTK4 theme errors and it always ends in core dump.

I'm an absolute noob here with bash, so if you need me to provide with more context or logs, I will happily try since I want to solve this already.

I have all drivers installed that belong with my GPU:

 $ spl nvidia
lib32-nvidia-470xx-utils
nvidia-470xx-dkms
nvidia-470xx-settings
nvidia-470xx-utils
opencl-nvidia-470xx

I have the multilib uncommented just as the wiki guided me through. I installed Steam and I want it installed on pacman, currently is just sitting there, I have reinstalled it, uninstalled it, removed cache files, removed orphaned folders, removed orphaned packages (to check it was not any blooting issue). Reinstalled again. Same thing. Same errors always repeat. The usual log is as it follows.

perhaps https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/OpenGL#Installation (But I'd expect it to whine around if the installation was nonexistant)

X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)

This, on the other hand, wines about VRAM/GPU? I don't know if 2 GB VRAM is enough but it should be.

Possibly related to https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=291271 (but keep that possible in mind)

Please post the full outputs of

$ vulkaninfo --summary #comes with vulkan-tools

Hey @jl2, thanks for replying. Well I took a quick look at those threads and they might be loosely connected to my issue, but not quite.

It's to early to point to a root cause, but some things can already be removed as possible cause .

The lspci & vulkaninfo output look good and confirm you only have 1 videocard.
(you may be surprised how many people have 2 videocards in their system without realising it).

Glxinfo output should provide basic details about your system, it failing is a bad sign.

Combined this indicates the issue is not with steam but on a lower level .

Please run as root (or with root rights)

# journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

It will upload your system journal to a public hosting site and output a link. Post that link .

Also post xorg log .

How are you starting cinnamon ?

dazpe · 2025-04-09 14:07:20

Hi @Lone_Wolf, thank you for clarifying some of the confusing output of glxinfo, here's as you requested, the journalctl output:

 # journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st
http://0x0.st/8_73.txt

I tried requesting xorg log as you asked, and this was the result. I had to do some path checking as well and redo the command lol

I was trying with 'ts' as the wiki said and ts wasn't found so it worked without 'ts'.

I also tried with grep to find anything related to nvidia in the xorg log:

How are you starting cinnamon ?

Well I don't know what you mean by that, but I will say you mean as the boot itself? I use the main Arch - Linux kernel (not linux-lts) and boot Cinnamon almost instantly
(pretty fast ngl). The only DE I have is Cinnamon at the moment, I had KDE before but as stated it was working horribly with my GPU-

I think they mean if you were launching cinnamon manually via a command, or a command in a script, or via something like SDDM, we can see in the journal you shared that it's SDDM though.

typo in the kernel parameters, use

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1

instead.
(you may not need nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 as that's mainly for newer cards)

about starting cinnamon :
linux kernel can't start GUI environment , for X there are 2 methods used :
boot to graphical target, load a Display Manager (sometimes called login manager) and let the DM start user sessions
boot to multi-user target (tty/console) , user logins to console and runs startx / xinit manually .

You are using the first method with sddm as DM.
