Aha, looking at issue #109 then checking journalctl I see:

Oct 09 09:34:34 homebase kernel: NVRM: API mismatch: the client has the version 340.107, but
                                 NVRM: this kernel module has the version 340.106. Please

I suspect that maybe an "apt update" ran which installed a new nvidia driver but I haven't rebooted so the old one is still active? I'll try rebooting to see if that helps.

I think it would be very helpful if libcogl could be enhanced to report some sort of error rather than just dumping core...
