This seems related: #75868

I have this in configuration.nix:

    hardware.opengl.extraPackages = [
        pkgs.vaapiIntel
        pkgs.mesa.drivers
    ];

This is indeed likely the linked issue, which is not really Blender-specific, but instead a generic issue with OpenGL runtime mismatches. Please ensure and verify that Blender is coming from the same nixpkgs commit that NixOS is (e.g., Blender is not from Home Manager), and that the system has been rebooted since the last nixpkgs update.

[amarshall]

Closing as believe this is a duplicate of above-mentioned issue, and no response from reporter for some time. Feel free to reopen if you believe this is in error.

@husnoo did you manage to get blender to run on your system? I have the same graphics hardware, so I'm curious if there's some way you got it to work.

[cxandru]

(In my case I do have blender installed via my configuration.nix, so I would expect the issue to not be one of OpenGL runtime mismatch)

[husnoo]

no sorry, I haven't rebooted in ages, I tend to have so much open that I can't be bothered. it wasn't an urgent thing for me, I'll pick it up at the next upgrade I imagine.
