Hi!

Please, try to use a command line to setup a Library Folder

Or check if this workaround helps #103

Hello @DotBow,

Neither seems to solve the issue. It still crashes with the same error. I'll try building from source and check for any dependencies.

So a bit late to the issue but it might still help: try adding GDK_BACKEND=x11 in front of the startup command so like GDK_BACKEND=x11 ./BlenderLauncher. (you nevertheless still need to set the library folder in the args)

Also from what I know the xsettings antialiasing issue is only when using wayland on newer gnome because old gtk application aspect the gtk key wich got removed in gtk4. So I guess somewhere in the BlenderLauncher is an outdated library using something under gtk3 but im not sure @DotBow maybe you can check if there are any updates. Nevertheless the GDK_BACKEND fix should work when you are using Wayland (also its only application based so you'll keep all benefits of wayland). Hope we can close that issue and all other issues about xsettings.
