I'm all out of ideas :
- client is at the latest version : runescape-launcher is already the newest version (2.2.9).
- GPU is Intel UHD Graphics 620 so no nvidia drivers
- OS: Linux Mint 20.1 x86_64 & Kernel: 5.8.0-44 , all full updated
Runescape client is stuck at "Loading application resources", with no errors in terminal (launched using runescape-launcher command in terminal).
And I still have DXP time
From my understanding with Linux graphics drivers there is a kernel-space component and a user-space component. With NVIDIA proprietary drivers, the kernel-space component is able to be distributed via package management and compiled via DKMS every time the kernel is updated, for example I have the package:
nvidia-legacy-340xx-kernel-dkms - NVIDIA binary kernel module DKMS source
The kernel-space component and user-space component versions have to match.
IIRC with Intel/Radeon drivers I'm not sure how their use of DKMS works (e.g. amdgpu-dkms), it may be the only way to get their newer kernel-space component is a newer kernel which includes it. e.g. Linux-Mint unstable or a daily build, not the 20.1 LTS as you have. I don't know if a container like snap would be a way around that as HMM speculates:
Hmm said :
For Intel/AMD/NVidia open source drivers, the snap and flatpak contain their own internal versions of some of the Mesa libs, which form a large part of the graphics stack on open source drivers. It's possible that either of the two packages individually might work even if your host system does not.
But this is really beyond my knowledge, you're welcome to ask in your Linux Mint forum. That you have such a recent kernel makes me think a newer kernel won't help sadly... perhaps EGL isn't supported in the Intel driver yet? Intel seems to not have a convenient DKMS package anymore and suggests to instead just upgrade your kernel.

Whoops I didn't notice your later posts MosfetWall, looks like HMM's open source drivers snap/flatpack client user-space stack hypothesis worked?:

So, apparently there is something wrong, dunno what, but installing the snap client did the trick for me.
MosfetWall said :
Jagex, you are killing me
New update, now no client works on linux
Again, using linux mint with intel GPU, client is stuck at loading application resources.
This makes me think about quitting, apparently there is no support for linux even if there is a client present.
Funny part is that snap client worked this morning
MosfetWall said :
Thx, for "downgrading" the snap client
and provide instructions to launch in debug mode
[...]
And true, the performance is awful we can only wait for jagex to fix this issues, and I'm willing to bet that it will take a while.
Anyway, I need to give up.
