Start with the attached steam-257420.log and the log collected after applying gfx_iDriverVersion=12000, then reproduce the immediate crash by launching Serious Sam 4. Compare both runs on the reported AMD Radeon VII, Mesa 20.3, kernel 5.9, and Proton 5.0-10-rc4 setup. Done means identifying the cause and confirming a fix or compatibility result.
