Thanks for the reminder, I have forgotten about this thread until now. I recall looking into this further after this and was informed that vdpau will fall back to nvidia as a last resort when all else fails. As you suggested a newer kernel could help. ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

I did read it and I read it again, this is the first that you mentioned that you do not have nvidia hardware, but you are right that makes the issue sound different. I wonder why its trying to use libvdpau_nvidia.so regardless? Perhaps this is a red herring? I am not familiar with vlc. Another idea is that this is related to DRI2 in which case I would suggest trying the modesetting xorg driver (Part of xorg-server) and / or DRI3. You could also try newer versions of xorg and mesa, but this would be more involved to test. ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/

None what you said has anything to do with it. You all missed that there's an earlier line, 'libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate,' and other error lines. VLC may now be built to use more parts of display hardware, and Nvidia is just something it checks for but is n/a. I'm using an AMD Radeon RX Vega 64 with kernel 4.18.11, but I don't think the AMD 3D drivers are ready for Slackware 14.2... and unfortunately VLC doesn't give me an option to not use such parts that make it crash. root@0.cosmos:~# lspci|grep VGA 03:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

The issue is specifically that libvdpau_nvidia.so does not exist. I would suggest removing nvidia, cleaning up any broken symlinks left behind (See the README), reinstalling xorg-server, mesa and then nvidia.
