appimage fails to launch with Vulkan on non-Ubuntu linux #16496

Open sillyspiel opened 5 months ago

First and foremost consider this:

Description

appimage fails to launch with Vulkan on non-Ubuntu linux

retroarch should launch with video_driver set to Vulkan

changing the video driver to Vulkan via config file causes RA to fail to launch

I've tested this on openSUSE Tumbleweed, Fedora 40, LMDE 6, and Debian Bookworm and all have the same problem. Working fine on Mint 21.3 and Ubuntu 24.04. Will work if video driver set to GL.

Output: 

$ ./RetroArch-Linux-x86_64.AppImage --verbose

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. download retroarch appimage package
  2. run appimage
  3. close and change video driver to vulkan in spawned config file
  4. try to run appimage again
  5. run from terminal with --verbose flag

Environment information

hizzlekizzle commented 5 months ago

same issue? https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/13714

sillyspiel commented 5 months ago

same issue? #13714

Quite possibly. In my case different GPU though (Intel).

Further testing: same thing happens on openSUSE Tumbleweed with RA installed from repos via zypper.
