ah no... 2.4.60 is right...

Yes so Ilia - I've switched out 2.4.60 as per your suggestion to 2.4.56
(getting the version numbers right :) ) and it's still definitely giving me
the multiple instances message.

This is going to sound like a stupid question, but I'll ask anyways --
you *did* restart chrome after changing libdrm versions, right?

There are no stupid questions - just stupid answers like 'whaddya mean restart chrome'

Seriously though, I've restarted the machine each time I've tried to switch out those libraries, so it's definitely not that.

I was going to mention that there were a handful of fixes in libdrm,
potentially since 2.4.56 (I forget the exact versions), but if 2.4.60
also fails, then that would have them.

There was a final assert() added in 2.4.62, but that was to better
isolate the cause of weirdo crashes (i.e. crash when the thing going
wrong happens rather than stashing bad pointers for later very
confusing dereference). Not GPU crashes.

Just for your information,

nouveau E[   PFIFO][0000:01:00.0] PFIFO: read fault at
0x0003e21000 [PAGE_NOT_PRESENT] from (unknown enum
0x00000000)/GPC0/(unknown enum 0x0000000f) on channel 0x007f80c000
[unknown]

means that there was VM fault from an unknown gpu unit (???) when
reading some resource by the GPU.

OK, I was assuming it was a side effect of the -EINVAL when we get the multiple instances message.

(The GPU has its own MMU.)
Unfortunately this can happen for one of a million reasons, the
biggest one being "unknown", but mesa definitely doesn't handle
command submission failures particularly well... should probably add a
"fail 1% of the time" thing to help fix that up.

Do you have a reproducible way of achieving the multiple buffer on
validation list thing? What GPU do you have? (Looking for a codename,
not a marketing name... lspci should have it... GFxxx or GKxxx or
