libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)

I get this error with exllama running elinas alpaca 4bit safetensors

Previously i never got this issue, not sure if its going to impact performence or cause random crashes

I tried a fresh python virtualenv reinstalling requirements and still get the error

what do you think the cause / implications of this is? @turboderp

I also tried using my conda environment + virtual env, and still get the issue

It happens on initialization, though i may have also seen it when working with larger context sizes logs:

Do you get this with other models as well? It sounds like it's related to Chromium, AMD drivers and Wayland..?

This seems to have gone stale.
