If you are using Steam Proton or Wine, you can often force the translation layer to use OpenGL instead of Vulkan. While OpenGL is slower on modern hardware, it is much more stable on legacy hardware like Ivy Bridge.
Intel’s Ivy Bridge GPU architecture lacks certain hardware features required for full Vulkan compliance. Specifically: mesa-intel warning ivy bridge vulkan support is incomplete
If you are playing native Linux games from the 2012–2015 era or using the desktop environment, you will likely never notice an issue. The OpenGL support for Ivy Bridge in Mesa is mature and stable. If you are using Steam Proton or Wine,
