Layer an environment variable to strip the warning.
In your game launch options (Steam), add:
Install vulkan-mesa-layer (or equivalent for your distro) and enable the VK_LAYER_MESA_DEVICE_SELECT layer to fall back to software rendering for broken features. Layer an environment variable to strip the warning
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/intel_icd.x86_64.json %command% But note: This won't remove the warning. The best you can do is suppress stderr redirection:
MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965 steam This forces Mesa to use the older i965 OpenGL driver instead of the iris driver, which tries to load the anv Vulkan driver. You lose Vulkan entirely, but you also lose the warning. For 90% of Ivy Bridge users, this is the best stability fix. Scenario B: You want actual Vulkan functionality (Best for Tinkerers) If you truly want Vulkan on Ivy Bridge, you are fighting hardware limits. The best you can do is accept the warning and restrict which Vulkan features are used. The best you can do is suppress stderr
%command__ 2>/dev/null (This hides all errors, which is dangerous.)
export MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=i965 Alternatively, for a single Steam launch: Scenario B: You want actual Vulkan functionality (Best
