Try testing linux 5.12.15.arch1-1 I decided to start with iHD_drv_video.so. The file for iHD_drv_video.so exists. It is recognised as an ELF shared object by the file utility. It is owned by the intel-media-driver 21.2.1-1 package. Pacman -Qkk sttaes intel-media-driver is OK. Here, according to pacman, it is only required by inetl-media-sdk. I removed # pacman -Rssc intel-media-sdk intel-media-driver intel-gmmlib intel-gmmlib description mentions memory management. For now I haven't removed anything else. It didn't help. xserver still crushed, seemingly because of chromium. Now I noticed that if I request chromium to start in another desktop, desktop in the window manager sense, than the crash is delayed until I actally swithcing to the specific desktop chromium is supposed to run in. And even then, the chromium window can be seen for a sortwhile before the crash. Is it obvoius because the xserver causes the segmentation violation? So I start requested chromium to run in another desktop, and killed it, ctrl-C, after I got the error messages. This prevents the xserver from crashing. Like before, with $ chromium |& > chromiumFailure I got: [1573:1573:0708/091915.153379:ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(374)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.
