Description lou vandeventer 2024-07-16 02:15:36 UTC 
This began with the update to Plasma 6. I'm currently using Firefox 127.0.2 with nvidia driver 555.58.02. When I start Firefox from a console I get this error when it crashes:

"Wayland protocol error: wp_linux_drm_syncobj_surface_v1#49: error 4: explicit sync is used, but no acquire point is set"

I'm currently on Plasma 6.1.2. I checked the openSUSE forums and apparently this isn't a widespread problem, but it's happening to me.

This is maybe fixed with Firefox 128 as already in the mozilla repo and requested for Tumbleweed inclusion a few minutes ago.

Please report back if that one works for you.

I just installed Firefox 128 from Mozilla since it's still not available via zypper and it crashed with the same Wayland error. 

Is there a chance this won't happen with the openSUSE version?

Recently Firefox crashed in Wayland but I got a different error message:
