__GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=mesa required to open Launcher on Linux

I went to play Minecraft and the Launcher crashed. It won’t let me reopen it without crashing again. __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=mesa seems to be required to open the launcher as a environment variable.

Environment

Fedora 43 KDE
Beta Launcher

Hey, I just found that this workaround seems to apply to my case MCL-26139 . I have some more information there, as it seems dependent on the vendor of the GPU.

Let them decide which bug is a duplicate of which.

This seems to be caused by the latest update on Linux. I also use Intel. This does not seem to be happening with Windows or Mac, more so Linux, and not desktop environment dependent. Might be distro dependent as only Fedora 43 has been tested.

@Yellowsam This does seem to be an issue with Fedora 43.
I was repackaging the official .deb into a fedora .rpm package, so I noticed this during my testing.

Here’s my logs from a fresh Fedora 43 Workstation machine that's running the minecraft-launcher binary straight from the tarball. Fedora Workstation seems to have all the dependencies already installed so its easy to test.

Team, running Fedora 43, Im getting similar behaviour, segfault seems to be in libX11 was wondering if it was related to feroda 43 going wayland only (attached accumulated logs). However I have another machine also on fedora 43 (same updates) that doesnt reproduce the issue.

Affected (logging attached) machine Intel i7-10700K AMD radeon BONAIRE CPU driving 3 monitors

Unaffected machine Intel i5-52500U Intel i915 driving single monitor (is a laptop and the laptop screen is long since gone so the nVidia GF117M doesnt see any action)

Foound my way here from https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/1p9flhs/curseforge_not_operating_properly/ and __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=mesa ./minecraft-launcher resolves for me

This attached file might actually be more useful, is a composite of the minecraft log with other information from system logs
