Do not try to overwrite your nvidia driver.
You must completely remove everything to do with nvidia:
sudo apt-get remove --purge '^nvidia-.*'
Then reinstall the desktop:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
You can then install nvidea-driver-470 (proprietary, tested)
Hope that helps.
Thanks for taking the time, but I'm already running 470, never ran a newer version.
It definitely happened between 21.04 and 21.10 as it worked flawlessly before.
Everything except Houdini also works as intended.
Also, since the same thing happens in 18.5 I'm guessing it's some library in the system that has changed functionality somehow.

For what it's worth, I haven't experienced any of those problems on current Debian Testing (Bookworm).

Version 19.0 does come with its own share of brand new annoying problems, when compared to 18.5 (I think something in Qt has changed for the worse), but fortunately for me, none of them are what you guys have described here. Nothing that prevents Houdini from running on Debian Bookworm.
I tested Karma XPU, and so far it didn't segfault on me.
While my post might not be very helpful, I think it at least proves that

Remember you can contact support@sidefx.com if you're having problems installing or running Houdini.
The requirements have changed between 18.5 and 19.0, and some of the OS's have changed what they install by default in their more recent versions.
Check our system requirements page: https://sidefx.com/sysreq [sidefx.com]
Chances are you're missing some libraries that Houdini needs.
For example, many of our users have found that one or both of these commands sort things out for them:
sudo apt install libopengl0 freeglut3 freeglut3-dev
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libxcb-xinerama0
At any rate, support can help you if you can't get up and running. Please contact them.

FWIW, I think the best workaround for now on glibc 2.34 distro's (anything ubuntu related 21.10+ or Fedora 35+) is to do the following that permanently disables use of jemalloc. Make sure to NOT set LD_LIBRARY_PATH nor LD_PRELOAD after doing this:
This of course will make Houdini run slow as molasses so the best solution is still to downgrade your distro unfortunately. Or if someone is a super Linux user, figure out a way to preload an older glibc version when running Houdini. For background, glibc maintainers pretty much said that they intended to break backwards compatibility and will never add it back: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16939 [sourceware.org]
cd $HFS/dsolib cp libjemalloc.so.1 empty_jemalloc/libjemalloc.so.1.orig cp empty_jemalloc/libjemalloc.so.1 .

Hi,
Im on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, H19.0.531, AMD Ryzen 9 and Nvidia 2070 GPU.
Getting this crash on houdini startup
I tried few suggested fixes mentioned above:
sudo apt install libopengl0 freeglut3 freeglut3-dev
sudo apt-get install --reinstall libxcb-xinerama0
But still no love.
Running export LD_PRELOAD="/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc_malloc_debug.so.0 doesn't work, it seems like this file does not exist on my system. I have already libc6 installed, perhaps I need something else?
I contaced SESI support, but they have no solution. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Probably something related to your set up since other people seem to work fine? eg. https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/81386/?page=3#post-353732 [www.sidefx.com]
To first see if it's video driver related, run these commands (after sourcing houdini_setup)
$ lsb_release -a $ hgpuinfo

haha, im happy it runs
yes, now hgpuinfo finishes.
Seems like it was crashing on querying OpenCl Platform info block.

I managed to get Houdini 19 to load on Fedora 35.
Graphics: Nvidia Proprietary Drivers. 510.47.03
Kernel: 5.16.16-200.fc35.x86_64
WM: awesome (x11)
I had the same issue posted in this thread. The launcher installed like normal but I could not start any Houdini version. I was only met with the Error:
Using the Information posted in this thread I managed to get Houdini 19 running.
This is what i did.
First I installed all the dependencies. I do not know if this is necessary but a previous user recommended this.
Then I sourced the houdini_setup_bash and preloaded libc_malloc_debug.so.0. Ubuntu users apparently have to do something similar but this file is located in /lib64/ on Fedora 35.
Now after doing all this and executing "houdini &" in "/opt/hfs19.0/" Houdini 19 starts like normal.

Wayland is not currently supported AFAIK, nor have I heard of anyone using Houdini on Wayland. Fedora 35 is a non-starter because it uses glibc 2.34, wayland or no wayland.
Again, please see https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/81386/?page=4#post-357435 [www.sidefx.com] where I think disabling jemalloc is probably a better workaround than preloading the DEBUG glibc allocator. Using Houdini on Fedora 35 with these workarounds will be slower than running Houdini on a distro still running on glibc 2.33 or below.
