Crashes on startup on Fedora 38

[sunbeam60]

Happy to drop logs or whatever is helpful.

I also have problems when booting on Pop_OS 22.04. Laptop model: 20TRS1W200 ThinkPad P15v Gen 1 GPU: NVIDIA Quadro P620

However, I have 2 gpus, one discrete and one integrated. When using hybrid graphics it does boot. But when I switch to the discrete graphics card only mode. It crashes before it can perform a first draw.

Please let me know if you need the logs

Maybe we can try fixing it ourselves if our issues overlap? I have never developed for electron so it is definitely a new adventure for me.

When you try to start it from the CLI, can you get the logs an post them? Often that will give some insight to why it's crashing.

Electron's autoUpdater does not support the 'linux' platform
[149465:0509/164404.584139:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(415)] GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.
[1]    149465 trace trap (core dumped)  wiregui

Unfortuntaly, this does not give super much info. Is there some way I can extract this dumped core for you? If this would help of course.

For what it's worth, I also have two-ish GPUs (a discrete nvidia and the in-CPU one of the 7800X3D).

I'm actually about two do a fresh install of Fedora (from 38 Workstation to 38 Silverblue) so will have a look at any success under that and report back.

I mean, tbf, there's now built-in support for WG in Gnome 44, so the need for wiregui is a little less, but the lack of support for .conf files in Gnome 44 makes the conversion process not just difficult, but undocumented, so wiregui most definitely still has a place.

I also had the same problem when running the application on Ubuntu. Launches with settings: wiregui --no-sandbox %U

For convenient launch, I edited the path /usr/share/applications/wiregui.desktop Exec=wiregui --no-sandbox %U
