Not sure, if this belongs here, but calibre ebook-viewer and foliate ebook-viewer (did not try others yet) complain with this error: Could not create EGL surfaceless context: EGL_BAD_ALLOC. e.g. calibre: ./ebook-viewer Path override failed for key base::DIR_APP_DICTIONARIES and path '/home/claus/Tools/calibre-7.24.0/bin/qtwebengine_dictionaries' Path override failed for key base::DIR_APP_DICTIONARIES and path '/home/claus/Tools/calibre-7.24.0/libexec/qtwebengine_dictionaries' Path override failed for key base::DIR_APP_DICTIONARIES and path '/home/claus/Tools/calibre-7.24.0/libexec/qtwebengine_dictionaries' [1230876:1230927:0116/092932.321538:ERROR:gl_context_egl.cc(393)] eglCreateContext failed with error EGL_BAD_ALLOC Segmentation fault (core dumped) Plasma or mesa faults? How to fix this bug (or, who to delegate to?) --- Operating System: Fedora Linux 41 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.11.0 Qt Version: 6.8.1 Kernel Version: 6.12.9-200.fc41.x86_64 (64-bit)
If something crashed, we need a backtrace of it so we can figure out what's going on. Can you please attach a backtrace of the crash using the `coredumpctl` command-line program, as detailed in https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Retrieving_a_backtrace_using_coredumpctl?
Fedora 41, KDE Wayland, and I updated from plasma 6.2.1-1 to 6.2.5-1 this morning (Jan 16th, 2025). If I don't see a global environment variable set to QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb, everything crashes, and I get a blank screen. Luckily, I have a shortcut for Konsole that will open even though the entire desktop is black (no background, no panels). My laptop has a AMD 780m (iGPU,) 6500xt (dGpu,) and a 7800xt (eGPU,) all the same results with all of the mesa packages version 24.3.3-2. Nothing is showing up in coredumps, and the logs only show the error : eglCreateContext failed with error EGL_BAD_ALLOC. Is there anything else I can do to get information to help out?
well, i somehow fixed the problem by downgrading mesa\* It's all on 24.2.4 now and back in a working state. Seems like mesa 24.3.x is in a pretty bad shape (as can also be seen by issues in their gitlab tracker)
i created https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/12491 @kevin maybe you cloud join in?
