how did you install? I am running Fedora (wayland) and installed it as flatpak (via flathub)

github2099 avatar Mar 06 '25 01:03 github2099

I installed on Ubuntu 24.04

ii rednotebook 2.38-0~202502232111~ubuntu24.04.1 all Modern desktop diary and pe>

I remember I had the same problem before though, with 22.04

sjg20 avatar Mar 06 '25 02:03 sjg20

I am still getting this error. But I found that I can use this:

GDK_BACKEND=x11 rednotebook

as a workaround. No error, and now I can use wayland

sjg20 avatar Jun 03 '25 10:06 sjg20

I pushed a change for this (hopefully). Can you run from source to see if the error is fixed (even without the workaround)? (Clone the repo and run ./run).

Thanks for looking at it! Sorry, no I see the same problem with:

Oh, I can't reopen this either. Shall I create a new issue?

sjg20 avatar Sep 19 '25 17:09 sjg20

If there is any way I can debug this, PLMK,

I am using X11 for now, partly because wayland has mini hangs after using Chrome/Claude a lot, but I do log out every few weeks.

sjg20 avatar Sep 19 '25 20:09 sjg20

Thanks for the follow-up! I pushed another change to the "master" branch. Can you please test the latest revision?
