It seems that the snap package of retroarch has issues working properly with the vulkan driver.

I have both Intel Xe integrated graphics as well as an nvidia GTX 1650 Ti GPU. I have drivers for both installed, and have only the discrete nvidia GPU enabled (not hybrid mode). Here is my log output:

It's interesting that retroarch finds the integrated Xe GPU, but not the nvidia one. I assume that is a clue to the cause of the crashing, at least in my case?

For what it's worth, when the integrated Xe GPU is enabled, using vulkan with RA does not cause a crash on startup. Here is the log output when the iGPU is enabled (again, not hybrid):

If you compare the two outputs, the first line in the Xe scenario that appears beyond the point at which the nvidia scenario ends (because of the crash) is:

[INFO] [Vulkan]: Using resolution 1920x1080

Not sure if that is indicative of anything.

I also tried installing Retroarch from the Ubuntu PPA using the instructions on the Retroarch website. Surprisingly, this resulted in a similar X Error: BadDrawable error message (when using the vulkan driver on the nvidia GPU). So maybe the problem is (at least in part) the nvidia driver.

Yeah, I think this is a GPU-switching problem.

Is it still an issue with latest stable ?
