Lutris 0.5.17 Fails to Correctly set the Vulkan ICD Loader

[thevinter]

After upgrading to .17 I get the following error when launching lutris

And launching vulkaninfo myself works fine

Downgrading to 0.5.16 fixes the issue and I can see the correct loader in the configuration (it's also the only option)

[ChuckBartowski91]

That's an issue for me too, but the games are working fine with vulkan.

[danieljohnson2]

I think you may be affected by a bug I just turned up; where Lutris does not fall back to lspci if Vulkan is present, but fails to work with your GPU.

You could try to download the latest master, run the bin/lutris script within, and see if that does anything for you.

the error in the terminal still shows for me with master version (don't understand why no wrapped text in code, maybe new firefox update, sorry):

[ViNi-Arco]

Could you bring back the Vulkan ICD Loader option?
This makes it easier to switch between RADV, AMDVLK and AMDGPU-PRO, than adding some envars manually..

[strycore]

We absolutely DO NOT WANT anyone on this planet or in the whole galaxy to use AMDVLK or AMDGPU-Pro for gaming.

We will do everything in our power to prevent people from using those.

You're being ironic, right?

Using any of them when necessary is an advantage, see this issue on Mesa as an example.

And anyway, it's a useful option, I don't see anything against it..

[strycore]

No I'm not being ironic. I've messed up more than one system trying to get AMD proprietary drivers working.
Those drivers are not for gaming they are for professional workloads and are only supported on Ubuntu LTS and RHEL.
No edge case will justify having support for those in Lutris. Lutris is software aimed at making gaming easier, not giving people a false impression that there is possibly a better alternative than mesa that will just end up ruining their OS.

If anything, I would add detection of AMDGPU Pro in Lutris to show a warning users to switch back to mesa.

We have good free and open source drivers for AMD GPUs while AMD offers piss poor support for their proprietary alternative, we can do without.

[AdelKS]

I was having stutters for a few months and I realized just today that I was running on amdgpu-pro all this time, turns out the ICD loader choice in Lutris has disappeared and the amdgpu-pro takes priority because of the precedence. The stutters were happening because amdgpu-pro does not support Graphics Pipeline Library.
