$ /usr/bin/pulsar: line 166: 217750 Trace/breakpoint trap   (core dumped) nohup "$PULSAR_PATH" --executed-from="$(pwd)" --pid=$$ "$@" > "$ATOM_HOME/nohup.out" 2>&1
[217750:1209/153159.171522:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(415)] GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.

It is Electron issue, when Electron-libs don't match your system

--in-process-gpu option helps as workaround.
Also --disable-gpu-sandbox or --no-sandbox helps too.

# works:
$ firejail --env=DESKTOPINTEGRATION=appimaged --noprofile --appimage /home/user/Downloads/Pulsar-1.63.2022120904.AppImage --in-process-gpu
$ firejail --env=DESKTOPINTEGRATION=appimaged --noprofile --appimage /home/user/Downloads/Pulsar-1.63.2022120904.AppImage --disable-gpu-sandbox
$ firejail --env=DESKTOPINTEGRATION=appimaged --noprofile --appimage /home/user/Downloads/Pulsar-1.63.2022120904.AppImage --no-sandbox
# or for .deb installed:
$ pulsar --in-process-gpu

Which OS does this happen on?

🐧 Debian based (Linux Mint, Ubuntu, etc.)

OS details

Ubuntu 22.04

Which CPU architecture are you running this on?

Thanks for logging this but I think we have this in a couple of issues already where it is being tracked. https://github.com/pulsar-edit/pulsar/issues/174 and https://github.com/pulsar-edit/pulsar/issues/199

First launch (appImage) = FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(415)] GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye.

While other reports are mentioned in this one, searching for "GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye." only shows this closed report for me. Clicking the links to the other reports mentioned in here I can search the string and it's on the page but github search didn't match those open reports on my initial search.

--no-sandbox gets it to launch but it locks to whatever GPU it was initially run on. I'm guessing that bit is more a limitation than bug. I searched for options to disable GPU acceleration in hopes I could run on all GPU's but no dice.
