Blank screen upon launching, GNOME 46.1 (NVIDIA+X11)

[carterprince]

Describe the bug

Blank screen upon starting the app.

GPU is NVIDIA, DE is GNOME 46.1 on X11, installed via the Flatpak (from GNOME Software).

Error log:

~ $ flatpak run com.modrinth.ModrinthApp

Gtk-Message: 12:12:35.039: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

Running with root privileges produces the same output.

Appimage downloaded from https://modrinth.com/app produces a similar error, but instead of a blank screen it just crashes:

~/Downloads $ chmod +x modrinth-app_0.7.1_amd64.AppImage && RUST_BACKTRACE=full ./modrinth-app_0.7.1_amd64.AppImage

Tried to install from the AUR (modrinth-app-git), but it produces a seemingly unrelated error about yarn and pnpm.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install the app on GNOME 46.1 (NVIDIA+X11), AppImage or Flatpak.
2. Try to launch the app.

Expected behavior

App displaying some UI

System information

OS: Arch Linux (6.8.9-arch1-2) DE: GNOME 46.1 (X11 display server) App Version: v0.7.1 (from Flathub) GPU: RTX 3070 Ti, Proprietary NVIDIA Driver (nvidia-550.78-2)

Additional context

No response

[carterprince]

Running with WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 or __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 fixes the Flatpak.

So running

flatpak override --user --env=WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 com.modrinth.ModrinthApp

will make the variable permanent for the Flatpak.

Putting

export WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1

in ~/.bash_profile or ~/.profile or wherever you generally set environment variables makes it apply to all applications.

The AppImage still crashes.

Same issue on nixos, however the ~/.profile fix does not work for me :/

@KristianSvanholm Because you're using i3, you should try putting the export line in ~/.bash_profile and restarting. i3 may not read ~/.profile while GNOME and other DEs do. I've edited the text of my solution to account for this.

[KristianSvanholm]

Environment variable is set, but still doesn't work for me :P Might be some nixos shenanigans, not quite sure ...

This is an issue with webkitgtk across multiple tauri apps. NVIDIA's 555 driver is know to fix it in some cases

Same issue on nixos, however the ~/.profile fix does not work for me :/

This is a separate issue (https://github.com/modrinth/code/issues/1043). Try removing /tmp/com.modrinth.theseus-deep-link.sock and launching it again (along with updating your drivers)
