18167	GNOME segmentation faults on certain generations of Intel GPUs	Douglas R. Reno	Douglas R. Reno	"This seems to affect Intel GPUs prior to Generation 10 from what I'm reading. The original poster in blfs-dev has a Generation 9 GPU (UHD 600), on a Gemini Lake Celeron. I should be able to reproduce this on a Generation 9.5 GPU in theory (UHD 620).

It appears to be due to a commit in Mesa. The commit in question is [https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/commit/19c57ea3bf6d77cf6f07f2a56e781f55b0e6013b], and the upstream bug report (which can be found at [https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/8542]) hasn't had any activity for three months.

The user in the bug report above had HD Graphics 520, which is a Skylake GPU.

The post to blfs-dev can be found at [https://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/sympa/arc/blfs-dev/2023-06/msg00043.html]

Since this is a segmentation fault I'll take this and try to reproduce it. It also seems to affect GNOME only, and only in X11 mode. We'll probably need to add an optional patch into the book for Intel GPU users."	defect	closed	normal	12.0	BOOK	git	medium	fixed
