Hello,
I am using Fedora 42, and everything is working just fine, expect this issue I have with my SteamVR.
When I start a game, it opens for a few seconds and crashes. I made a test and found out, that when I boot up in an older Fedora 42 version everything just works fine. I guess there is something wrong with an update causing this crash, because my friends are having the same issue.
I was hoping to find the error by starting Steam via terminal. In fact there is an error, but I am quite new and dont know how to handle the problem. Maybe someone can help, or Fedora itself could fix this issue in the future. Thank You in advance.
Here is the codesection from the crashed SteamVR App:
