Appimage (Both) not launching on linux mint

Open Gramrock opened this issue 3 months ago • 3 comments

Hey guys, i downloaded both version, made them launchable but none of the appimage files run. exiled-exchange 2 however does launch via appimage.

can you guys please check why that might be? Or do i need to set something else up? I am not asking for the development requirements i simply want to use it as an overlay for pricechecking.

I am not using exile exchange because it only grabs the last reported window position of poe 2 and thus, the overlay is shown on the wrong monitor. this is 100% poe 2's carbage code's fautl sicne whenever i launch it on linux mint, it jumps from window to window during the launch process and doesnt refresh its position when finally launching on my main monitor. and i want to test sidekick and see whether it does launch on the correct monitor or procvdes any options to switch the overlay manually.

thanks in advance. Sincerely, Gram.

I have the same problem, just changed to Mint a few days ago and now I can't use Sidekick anymore. 👎

Same under wayland. If i launch as X app then renders a black screen:

$WAYLAND_DISPLAY= ./Sidekick-linux-stable.AppImage

I don't have the time to test on linux, since I don't use linux myself. But the linux version of Sidekick was tested on a plain Ubuntu distro. I have a gut feeling that it's not related to Sidekick, you can try and google the error you see there in the logs: Failed to create GBM buffer of size 1000x900: Invalid argument It looks related to nvidia drivers.

Potentially related to #938
