|
|
Hello, since the kernel upgrade from 6.6.21 to 6.6.30, BG3 is launching, the save is loaded but the game crashes as soon as a spell is casted or the inventory is opened.
It works fine if I boot to the previous kernel.
I updated the kernel using "make syncconfig"
Code: | # diff kernel-config-6.6.21-gentoo-sensors /boot/config-6.6.30-gentoo
3c3
< # Linux/x86 6.6.21-gentoo Kernel Configuration
---
> # Linux/x86 6.6.30-gentoo Kernel Configuration
33c33
< CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-sensors"
---
> CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=""
177c177
< CONFIG_GCC11_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS=y
---
> CONFIG_GCC10_NO_ARRAY_BOUNDS=y
477c477
< CONFIG_SPECULATION_MITIGATIONS=y
---
> CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=y
488a489,490
> CONFIG_MITIGATION_RFDS=y
> CONFIG_MITIGATION_SPECTRE_BHI=y
649a652
> CONFIG_ARCH_CONFIGURES_CPU_MITIGATIONS=y |
Is it safe to get rid of the new options or should I wait for a new kernel or a new BG3 update?
Thanks. |

Based on the names, none of those seem to me like they would explain your problem. You could try using make menuconfig to set them back as they were, but I doubt it will work. The more likely explanation is that some patch new in the newer kernel is interacting badly with the game. If you can find which patch it is, you could ask the kernel developers to revert or investigate. There are 1929 commits in v6.6.21..v6.6.30, so a bisect should only need log2(1929) = 11 steps.
Baldur's Gate 3 is proprietary software, which will interfere with testing, since the people you need to have look at this may not have it installed and may not want to buy it just to help you. Can you find any freely redistributable software which is also broken under these circumstances? |

No, no other software seems broken but I haven't tried everything.
For now, I just boot on the older kernel when I want to play. |
