Restarting steam and removing all args allowed me to launch the game somehow, i had the exact same error. Might be worth the try

Edit: Added hw information

I'll try a rollback to 550.76 when I get the chance.

That has been already tried, there's another issue with similar behavior here. According to that it's not a driver issue but a Valve/CS2 issue

yep, looks like something in librendersystemvulkan.so got borkened. :(

I was able to launch it again somehow, restarted the game and won't launch again.

The issue still persist but it appeared to me after kernel update. Cant verify since I removed older kernels already. I think there is something wrong with gameoverlayrenderer.so library, tried to reinstall steam/cs2, nothing helped.

Also it says error is in this block? Might be just noise.

It might as well be noise, the dmesg output shows a segfault in libnvidia-glcore and the game sometimes works just fine (at least in my pc) so idk.

Also what i found weird is that when the game crashes my sound starts acting up the same way it would be if the system hardlocked

[jakubgiesler]

I didnt observed this issue in fedora (x11, 6.9.4-200.fc40.x86_64) Also it seems like just our lovely nvidia, with newer drivers is affected.

Edit: steam just downloaded something for cs2 and its running now, so hopefully. Edit2: after another update its broken again.

[mSparks43]

like just our lovely nvidia, with newer drivers is affected.

Nah, its a new bug in CS2 from an update, it's a vulkan game, shouldn't be touching the GL drivers afaik, given how buggy its been on multiple monitors since release possibly related to that. up until very recently the only way to start it was to turn all the other monitors off but one.

Also it says error is in this block? Might be just noise.

The 118 line is just where the segfault (reading an invalid memory address) in the cs2 executable is getting caught in the script waiting for cs2 to finish. not much we can do but wait for a fixed librendersystemvulkan.so from valve. I tried the -opengl switch on startup properties but that dll still segfaults.

I thought huge company like Valve would have unit tests written against latest stable systems (including drivers, kernels, etc...), considering they support cs2 natively. I might be mistaken, but this is laughable, ofc there would be bugs. But at least I would expect ship the product that runs out of the box, or with minor tweaks.

you would think, but, this has been an ongoing side quest for a few years now, funniest so far was

[Chocolate-Banana]

Don't know if is related but trying to post it anywhere I can to help. I fixed mine by disabling MANGOHUD, that seemed to crash it on startup.

No need to disable anything, just start windowed then switch to fullscreen once its loaded.

I've noticed that the segfault tends to occur more frequently when using the in-game voice chat and pressing the mic button. This might indicate an issue with the voice chat integration. It would be great to investigate this angle further. Let me know if you need any additional logs or details.

That sounds like a completely different issue, this is a segfault starting up CS2 that prevents it launching at all.

what .so is yours segfaulting in?
