Hello @daved09, mesa 25.2.7 has a regression reported at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/14285. You might be able to workaround that driver issue by setting SteamVR's launch options to RADV_PERFTEST=video_decode,video_encode %command% while you wait for your distro's mesa packaging to pick up a build with https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/38417 or moves to 25.3.
