VLC 3.0.19 and 3.0.20 crash at launch with "*** stack smashing detected *** terminated" error #193

Closed MikeNavy closed 10 months ago

MikeNavy commented 10 months ago

Hi, Operating system: Linux Mint 20.3 Mate, based on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Operating system description: inxi.txt Note that Wayland is not installed on the system (DE Mate 1.26 has only a very partial wayland compatibility). Flatpak version: 1.14.4 (installed from Flatpak stable PPA). This issue affects VLC 3.0.19 and 3.0.20 flatpaks, VLC 3.0.18 flatpak was not affected.

Here is the output when VLC is launched with the command line and the "-vv" verbose option: VLCcrash_verbose.txt

Attempts to debug: I have installed the following debug environment:

flatpak install flathub org.kde.Sdk.Debug//5.15-23.08 org.videolan.VLC.Debug 
flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.Debug.default//23.08
flatpak install flathub org.kde.Sdk//5.15-23.08

Here is the debug output: VLC_debug.txt

Note that VLC 3.0.20, installed on my system from this PPA, https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+archive/ubuntu/ppa, does work.

Other tests:

Regards,

MN

Hi, I had a look at your GDB output unfortunately there is not much I can do, it seems to be some bad interaction at the GLX driver level, it seems to crash when loading the driver. It doesn't crash with Linux Mint 21.2 in a VM on my side.

An useful information would be everything related to your graphic configuration (graphic card, driver version, output of glxinfo64) but I will anyway be unable to help here, it's really not at the VLC level.

I had a look at inxi.txt and it seems you have a nvidia card with driver 390.157.

You can check with flatpak list that org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-390-157 is installed, if it is I can't help further sorry.

Hi,

Yes, my GPU is an Nvidia Geforce GTX 560 M, with 390.157 driver.

And yes, "org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-390-157" is installed...

Regards,

MN

I'm puzzled why even disabling device=all,device=dri doesn't fix this.

MikeNavy commented 10 months ago

Hi,

I have changed from 5.4 kernel to 5.15.0-88-generic (HWE*), with no more success.

Regards,

MN

(*): HWE is supposed to update kernel and X

Hi,

If it can help, here is my "glxinfo" output: glxinfo.txt

Hi,

It seems that the problem is related to the use of Nvidia driver, and maybe specifically 390-157 one.

Read this thread, the 8th message mentions that replacing Nvidia 390-157 by xserver-xorg-video-nouveau one solves the problem: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?p=2393264

This could be a workaround. However, with nouveau driver there is no OpenCL (not provided by nouveau driver, at best OpenCL could be done by the microprocessor, byt it would not provide accelerattion, as an example in LibreOffice CALC) and VMware Workstation Player has no longer 3D graphics acceleration (Nvidia GPU and driver needed for this).

Regards,

MN

Hi,

org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-390-157 is not the solution, but the problem!

Uninstalling it allows launching VLC 3.0.20 in graphical mode.

However, once uninstalled, it is automatically installed again at next flatpak unattended update...

Is there a way to prevent its reinstalling or to tell an application not to use it?

Regards,

MN

Erick555 commented 10 months ago

Try flatpak mask org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia-390-157.

Hi, Closed. Issue is related to Nvidia driver and runtime. See https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/-/issues/1676.
