Does not open / crashes on ubuntu 22.04 (gnome 42)
- Operating system: ubuntu 22.04, gnome 42
- Pencil version: 3.10 Pencil dont start, error in log:
Hardware acceleration disabled for Linux. Background web-printer started. Shortcut main service started. Shortcut: Super+F12 registered [76283:0530/144938.262782:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(894)] The display compositor is frequently crashing. Goodbye. Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)
There is a fix as shown in this issued patch #720 by adding a launch flag:
pencil --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox
I've tried this on two Ubuntu based computers and it does not work. I receive the following message when I paste the above in the command line:
Hardware acceleration disabled for Linux. Background web-printer started. Shortcut main service started. Shortcut: Super+F12 registered RENDERER started.
When I try to open Pencil, it still does not open and crashes.
Supplying --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox worked for myself.
I receive the following message when I paste the above in the command line:
That is what I see also -- are you sure the window is not open somewhere out of sight?
It actually ended up working. It was weird.. at first it did not.
Do we know when it will be working without command line code?
@therealayayron You don't need to use the command line itself, as you can also create a shortcut icon, and set it to call the same command.

I changed it in the icon Properties > Application > Command, and worked after rebooting. Thank you very much! I love this program!
I'm having no luck with this on Ubuntu 22.04 and KDE. I've tried with both the Nvidia GPU and the Intel built in GPU.
With --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox I get the output mentioned above but the application does not start.
Without the argument it immediately crashes.
I am really missing pencil as I plan a new software project.

I'm using Kubuntu 22.04, which is basically the same thing. It only worked after a full system reboot. Did you try to reboot?
Sadly rebooting didn't seem to change anything. When I open it from the application icon I get a bouncing icon by the mouse pointer and for about half a second it looks like maybe its going to start. A task icon appears for just a moment then disappears.
When I run it from the terminal I get to RENDERER started. and nothing shows up. I'm happy to provide any details that would be helpful. Let me know.
Today I downloaded the source code and started the development branch without issue.
