Hi. Thanks for the report.

Could you please start the app from terminal with --verbose option?

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

What is the output?

I have a similar issue on Ubuntu 22.04:

After installing the flatpak and amd GPU support, the application starts but I get immediately a message, telling me , that the application is not responding and a message in the application window telling me, that no language is installed while the language button is greyed out.

@klausbu Thanks for reporting.

Could you please start the app from the terminal with --verbose option to see more detailed logs?

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

There is also special option --gpu-scan-off (in v4.6 --hw-scan-off) that disables HW scanning when app starts. Most likely this "freeze" is due to some error in detecting GPU cards. You can re-enable GPU detection in Settings->Other.

To disable GPU detection when app starts:

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --gpu-scan-off --verbose

To re-enable:

Hi any luck fixing this? Here is the output again:

@mpiko Hi. The output is somehow corrupted or unreadable - I don't know why. Would you be able to reinstall Speech Note and repeat the test starting the app from the terminal using this commands:

flatpak uninstall net.mkiol.SpeechNote --delete-data
flatpak install net.mkiol.SpeechNote
flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --verbose

Thanks!

[mpiko]

Thank you very much for looking into this issue.  As indicated in a previous message,  this directory does exist: /home/michael/.local/share/flatpak/repo: opening repo: openat(config): No such file or directory  Just for the sake of it, I tried each command as a regular user before trying sudo. 

Here is the output as requested:

@.*** ~ $ flatpak uninstall net.mkiol.SpeechNote --delete-data error: While opening repository /home/michael/.local/share/flatpak/repo: opening repo: openat(config): No such file or directory @.*** ~ $ sudo flatpak uninstall net.mkiol.SpeechNote --delete- data

It looks like you can't even uninstall the app. It seems like the problem is not directly related to Speech Note, but rather something is broken in Flatpak itself. Not much I can help here :/

Maybe reinstalling Flatpak completely will help 🤔

[mpiko]

Yeah, it did uninstalled: @.*** ~ $ sudo flatpak uninstall net.mkiol.SpeechNote --delete- data

Hey! I'm facing the same issue, but apparently for different reasons. Since this issue is still open, I won't create a new one and I post my problem here.

This is the output of the following command :

flatpak run net.mkiol.SpeechNote --gpu-scan-off --verbose
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display 
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

Distro : Debian 12.7 Kernel : 6.1.0-25-amd64 DE : GNOME 43.9 CPU : 11th Gen Intel i7-1185G7 (8) @ 4.800GHz GPU : Intel TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] on Wayland

I do have qt apps that runs perfectly well.

Do you have an idea of what I could do to launch Speech Note ?

[MaximizeRr]

I'm facing the same problem https://github.com/mkiol/dsnote/issues/150#issuecomment-2368817641 I fixed it by launching flatpak with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland env var

flatpak --env=QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland run net.mkiol.SpeechNote

Source: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5658

[mkiol]

Closing. I assume the workaround with --env=QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland works as expected.

It seems that the problem is not related to the Speech Note app itself.

[mpiko]

No it does not. I’ve given up on it. Thank you anyway. Regards,Michael. On 30 Dec 2024, at 1:34 am, mkiol @.***> wrote: Closing. I assume the workaround with --env=QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland works as expected. It seems that the problem is not related to the Speech Note app itself.
