I made some testing with this issue with the same result on another Linux distribution so it’s not distro-bound.

Forcing SDL to use x11 with the SDL_VIDEODRIVER environment variable the game starts just fine but the log shows that it has issues with OpenGL.

[20:39:55] [Render thread/ERROR]: Failed to create backend OpenGL
com.mojang.renderpearl.api.device.BackendCreationException: OpenGL is not supported: Could not retrieve OpenGL functions
	at com.mojang.renderpearl.backend.opengl.GlBackend.loadLibrary(GlBackend.java:36)
	at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.<init>(Minecraft.java:523)

	at org.prismlauncher.EntryPoint.listen(EntryPoint.java:129)
	at org.prismlauncher.EntryPoint.main(EntryPoint.java:70)

Then, the game uses Vulkan instead:

[20:53:50] [Render thread/INFO]: Using graphics backend Vulkan, using drivers: 1.4.329 NVIDIA 595.71.05

Setting the graphics API to Vulkan in the video settings and launching the game without forcing x11, it launches fine.
