Getting libGL error when I "git push"

Issues & Assistance Newbies

Hi,

I get an error message after I do a ‘git push’:

libGL error: glx: failed to create dri3 screen
libGL error: failed to load driver: nouveau
libGL error: glx: failed to create dri3 screen
libGL error: failed to load driver: nouveau

The window to enter the passphrase opens and the ‘git push’ is done correctly. Bit I still ask myself what goes wrong here.

Here is my garuda-inxi

Welcome.

I’d first reboot just in case.

Then I don’t know anything about nvidia but this (lengthy) post has something about a similar situation: arch linux - OpenGL fails to load due to nvidia driver - Unix & Linux Stack Exchange - I did not understand much, anyways setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose before the operation (git push in this case) that causes the errors should provide more context. It also looks like some more information may be useful for troubleshooting (by someone who knows this stuff, not me):
lsmod | grep -iE '(iris|965|915|nouveau|nvidia)' (edit: fixed missing names)
pacman -Q | grep -iE '(nvidia|mesa|intel|cuda|vulkan|vdpau)'
ls -l /usr/lib/dri/

Prepending ‘prime-run’ helps. But there has to be a better way, no?

There has to.
It seems to me that you are using the dGPU only, I’m not sure so I don’t know if this applies.
The Wiki advises to run on the iGPU by default and only prime-run games and other GPU intensive tasks.
Anyways, see if setting DRI_PRIME=1 works too. That is an environment variable, it can be set permanently.

Using DRI_PRIME=1 prepending works. How can I make this permanent?

BTW: Appreciate your help. Thank you very much.
