-- Information about the crash:
I just sat down to play some Euro Truck Simulator 2, launching it via Steam as usual.

Instead of launching normally this time the screen froze for a bit and then KWin restarted.

I'm not sure if it is related to this (or even relevant) but I had a GPU hang(?) earlier this afternoon involving Teams for Linux (installed via Flatpak).
The log contains multiple lines mentioning `amdgpu 0000:0e:00.0: [drm] device wedged, but recovered through reset`

The reporter is unsure if this crash is reproducible.
