Hello @Develon5543, for reference, the attached minidump is a SIGABRT in linux-gate.so coming from libLLVM-14git.so. This looks like a duplicate of #8202. Can you confirm that you're also using the mesa-git package?

Hi, @kisak-valve. You are correct, this is a duplicate of #8202. Sorry for the noise! I'll be sure to follow the thread there.
