Crash at boot on wayland

Open eisterman opened this issue 4 months ago • 4 comments

Describe the bug When I launch Nyxt on my computer (Arch Linux, Wayland w/ Hyperland, NVIDIA GPU), the software immediately crash. This is the only GTK program that gives me problem in my config. I have tried all installation methods and changing GSK_RENDERER, ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT, GTK_BACKEND but nothing changed. In fact it seemed the program ignored all my settings when I tried to tell him to fallback to X11.

Here the log, it seems there is some problems with GTK+Wayland:

Are you trying to run the GTK version, or the Electron version?

I don't know honestly. I'm just running the program with no other options... How can I find out?

I have the same issue with nyxt 3.12 installed via Arch Linux package manager, but if I try nyxt 4.0.0-pre-release-13 via AppImage everything works okay. My GPU is also Nvidia.

I tried building with 4.0.0-pre-release-13 with default settings (so Electron binary) and it works properly. Seems this problem is limited to the v3 version.
