[Linux] Game crashes upon startup with custom xrandr resolution

Description:
I am running Minecraft 1.12.2 on Linux (Fedora 27, kernel 4.14.8) and the game will not start with a custom resolution. I'm using a Dell XPS 13 (HiDPi) so I wanted to render the game at 1600x900 as opposed to 3200x1800. This is the log of setting the custom resolution:

I then set the resolution in GNOME settings and launched the game. It crashes with this error:

I have tried using the mainstream java .jar launcher aswell as the 2.0.1005-dev-linux launcher found here:
