 |
|
After updating media-libs/mesa from version 24.0.9 to version 24.1.3 and above, the following problems appeared:
- the screen freezes after launching firefox
- the screen freezes when playing videos in telegram-desktop-bin
If media-libs/mesa is built without the "vaapi" USE flag, then the problems disappear.
What to do? Disable vaapi? |

This was due to some library linking changes within mesa. The next release (and stable release) will have merge request targets/va: Build va driver into libgallium when building with dri which will fix the issue. Either add the merge request as a user patch under /etc/portage/patches or use 9999 in the meantime to keep VA-API happy.

i use 24.3.3 with vaapi enabled to also get rid of llvm-18 - no problems so far.
please try by deleting /home/your_users_name/.cache/mesa_shader_cache_db
after restart it'll be re-created.

I installed media-libs/mesa-24.3.3 with the USE vaapi flag and deleted ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache_db.
Then I started firefox, after which the screen turned dark. The system stopped responding to the mouse and keyboard. You can only connect via ssh. |

you restarted your device or just deleted the folder and restarted FF ?
what does vainfo say <<< if you execute it as User in terminal ?
| Code: | Trying display: wayland
libva info: VA-API version 1.22.0
libva info: Trying to open /usr/lib64/va/drivers/radeonsi_drv_video.so
libva info: Found init function __vaDriverInit_1_22
libva info: va_openDriver() returns 0
vainfo: VA-API version: 1.22 (libva 2.22.0)
vainfo: Driver version: Mesa Gallium driver 24.3.3 for AMD Radeon RX 590 Series (radeonsi, polaris10, LLVM 19.1.4, DRM 3.59, 6.12.9-gentoo-1)

please try by starting FF from terminal and show the output.
also try with a clean New User - if FF also is failing.
