Permissions issue when trying to create graphics buffers or allocate resources related to graphics processing

[nazmulshuvo03]

Problem

When I run dx serve --platform desktop I am getting this error:

KMS: DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed: Permission denied
Failed to create GBM buffer of size 800x600: Permission denied
KMS: DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed: Permission denied
Failed to create GBM buffer of size 800x600: Permission denied
KMS: DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed: Permission denied
Failed to create GBM buffer of size 800x600: Permission denied
Failed to create EGL images for DMABufs with file descriptors -1, -1 and -1

May be this is OS related problem or GPU. I am not sure. I have given my current user access to /dev/dri. I have added my user to the appropriate groups (video and/or render) to grant it access to the graphics devices with the following commands:

sudo usermod -aG video <username>
sudo usermod -aG render <username>

And offcourse checked and double checked the packages. But noting is working.

Steps To Reproduce

• Just follow the documentation for desktop platform

Expected behavior

• Should start the desktop app

I have found the following solution from another Github repo, but it looks like a workaround to the problem, not an exact solution. Any further explanation will be very much appreciated.

env WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 dx serve --platform desktop

I ran into this issue trying use webkit2gtk on arch linux (with an nvidia card) and I was able to fix it without setting WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1.

Here is how I fixed it:

1. Check if you have modesetting enabled via

    cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset
   

2. If you see printed N then you need to enable it with

    echo options nvidia_drm modeset=1 | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia_drm.conf
   

3. Restart your computer

Same bug here (same conf as described but with rust 1.77) and modeset already set to Y. Only the workaround with env WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 dx serve --platform desktopworks.

Same problem here:

libEGL warning: egl: failed to create dri2 screen

** (geo-rustic:49891): WARNING **: 05:36:01.641: webkit_settings_set_enable_offline_web_application_cache is deprecated and does nothing.

Failed to get GBM device

using the workaround does indeed work. I'm using KDE Plasma 6.1.1, nvidia 555.52.04, on Wayland.

Unfortunately this is all quite upstream. Seems to be an issue hitting a set of users running linux + nvidia cards.

I'm going to close this and put documenting the workaround on our "document 0.6" milestone.

I also spun out an issue for dx to recognize these issues and give helpful suggestions on fixing them.
