Hello @gregf, did you recently update mesa or libdrm? There's some trouble going on with arch's packaging of mesa per #5145, https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/55297, and https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/55303.

Downgrading libdrm from 2.4.83-1 back to 2.4.82-1 fixed it for me.

Some more information here:

Its really an arch problem. lib32-libdrm is too old on arch. Once both are up to date, things are working.

Yep, this appears to be the case. Thanks for the information everyone.
