nixos/nautilus: artifacts and crash after update to mesa 25.3.0, also affects other GTK4 applications #463220

Description

@dbdbc

Nixpkgs version

  • Unstable (25.11)

Describe the bug

Black artifacts appear in the Nautilus window, and there are also artifacts in images rendered in nautilus. After a short while, it would stop responding. The error message shown below is displayed in the console.

The bug was probably introduced by the mesa update #461866, as everything works as expected in f3f1a9c, but the bug does appear in db158cd.

Steps to reproduce

Open Nautilus, open folders, keep browsing for a short while

Expected behaviour

Nautilus works as usual

Screenshots

Image

Relevant log output

(org.gnome.Nautilus:8917): Gsk-WARNING **: 15:38:12.304: vkWaitForFences(): The logical or physical device has been lost. (VK_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST) (-4)

Additional context

No response
