MangoHud doesn't work on Kubuntu 19.10

[Ahmed-E-86]

I installed MangoHud on Kubuntu 19.10, and I checked to see if it is installed successfully, and I found these files:
~/.local/share/MangoHud/libMangoHud.so
~/.local/share/vulkan/implicit_layer.d/mangohud32.json
~/.local/share/vulkan/implicit_layer.d/mangohud64.json

but I can't find the file libMangoHud32.so, I don't know if this is related to Ubuntu dropping the support for 32bit packages from Ubuntu starting from version 19.10, or not.

Anyway, trying to run any 64bit game with MANGOHUD=1 freeze the game during loading, and I had to kill the game, otherwise, it will load forever.

Here is the terminal output of Darksiders Genesis GOG before killing it
Darksiders Genesis.log

The only reason I could imagine it not copying that file is if it didn't build. Does you notice any errors when it builds? Assuming you have vulkan-tools installed, could you please run MANGOHUD=1 vkcube. Does the hud show?

[Ahmed-E-86]

I didn't get any errors during building, after installing all the required dependencies.

Running MANGOHUD=1 vkcube end up with this error:
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

What graphic card are you using?

[Ahmed-E-86]

What graphic card are you using?

AMD Radeon HD 8750M

[flightlessmango]

are you sure it's the vkcube from vulkan-tools? because other versions are known to crash

[Ahmed-E-86]

vulkan-tools is installed from universe (Ubuntu), and there is no other versions to install.

[Ahmed-E-86]

I don't think AMD Radeon HD 8750M has vulkan support if it uses radeon module. It seems it's actually even GCN 1.0. Google how to enable amdgpu.si_support if you haven't already.

I already did that long time ago. Here is Life Is Strange 2 (native/vulkan) running on my my machine:

@ahmed-elsayed2017 try now.

@ahmed-elsayed2017 try now.

I removed MangoHud, then build it again. It gives me these error messages, before the game crashes during loading:

Do you have libsensors installed?

Do you have libsensors installed?

It is installed.

[flightlessmango]

Put this file in $HOME/.local/share/MangoHud and see if that fixes it
https://flightlessmango.com/libMangoHud.so

It gives me now a different kind of error messages:

[flightlessmango]

oh, I made a mistake. Download it again

[Ahmed-E-86]

I saw MangoHud working this time for 2 seconds, and it crashed again with a different kind of messages

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::invalid_argument'
  what():  stoi

[flightlessmango]

Small sign of progress! try once more please

[Ahmed-E-86]

It worked for 2 seconds, and gave me the same error.

[flightlessmango]

Try again please

[Ahmed-E-86]

I tried with different games to see if there any difference from this game, and I get this error message:

vulkan: No DRI3 support detected - required for presentation
Note: you can probably enable DRI3 in your Xorg config
err:   Failed to create surface

[flightlessmango]

I believe you need to do what it says, enable DRI3 in your Xorg config
here is a link to the arch wiki on how to do that

I couldn't boot to my machine at all after doing that. I had to remove it again.

I can't even run any game now with, or without MangoHud. I guess amdgpu module is turned off, or the latest mesa update caused this issue.

[flightlessmango]

are you using your intel igpu for anything, if not can you turn it off in the bios? that might help

I can turn off dGPU from the bios if I want, but I can't turn off iGPU.

Could you join our discord? I think this might be easier over chat
