Didn't Factorio migrate from SDL2 to SDL3 recently? Could that have had an impact?

In my previous post, I'm also on X11, for whatever it might be worth.

Looks like every Wayland issue is related to Nvidia.
Folks, stop doing it to yourselves. :lol:

More data related to my earlier comments, confirming this happens near-identically with X11 and Nvidia 595 on Ubuntu 24.04. Screenshot here.

Code: Select all

❯ cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=24.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=noble
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS"

❯ loginctl show-session 2 -p Type
Type=x11

❯ nvidia-smi
