| webchat47 | anyone having problems with latest Slack on ubuntu 21.10 daily build? | 06:08 |

| guiverc | webchat47, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/slack/+bug/1943568 maybe - click "affects me too" | 06:32 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1943568 in slack (Ubuntu) "slack-desktop no longer runs" [Undecided, Confirmed] | 06:32 |
| * guiverc meant click "affects me too" if the bug reports matches your issue... (sorry I wasn't clear) | 06:35 | |
| Eickmeyer | guiverc: To be fair, I don't think slack is the problem. I've had the same symptoms with all electron-based apps in impish for the past week. | 15:00 |
| Eickmeyer | I'm trying to narrow-down the cause. | 15:00 |
| JanC | sounds like it's GPU-related ? | 19:48 |
| JanC | or maybe communication between the process that does the GPU rendering & some other process? | 19:51 |
| JanC | Eickmeyer: it might be useful to check if all people with this issue have nvidia non-free driver? | 19:53 |
| Eickmeyer | JanC: Yeah, that's what I'm working on. Unfortunately I noticed this on the 460 nvidia driver and the 470 nvidia driver. Seems to work when --no-sandbox is passed to the electron app, and it seems as though snaps and flatpaks are unaffected. | 19:54 |
| JanC | also, this bug report mentions a non-standard kernel also... | 19:55 |
| Eickmeyer | guiverc, JanC: I had to invalidate that bug, it's for the wrong "slack". We don't carry Slack in that reopos. | 19:55 |
| Eickmeyer | JanC: I'm using the standard kernel. | 19:55 |
| Eickmeyer | Long story short: ALL Electron apps are affected. | 19:55 |
| JanC | still, it would probably invalidate that bug report even if it was a supported package | 19:56 |
| Eickmeyer | Also tested Atom, VSCode, and Element. | 19:56 |
| Eickmeyer | JanC: Yes, it would. | 19:56 |
| JanC | https://xanmod.org/ kernel | 19:57 |
| Eickmeyer | One must pass --no-sandbox to get Atom and VSCode to work, Element seems to use a different Electron. | 19:57 |
| JanC | I suppose it's something for gamers & such | 19:57 |
| Eickmeyer | Yeah, idk. | 19:57 |
| Eickmeyer | I'm going to throw-out an email to ubuntu-devel@ to get some input. This only reared its head in the past week or so. | 19:59 |
| Eickmeyer | Probably two weeks ago. | 19:59 |
| JanC | might be useful to look at what build/runtime dependency packages were (significantly) changed recently | 20:00 |
| Eickmeyer | It would be runtime deps. | 20:01 |
| Eickmeyer | So far, everything is pointing at a gtk update from Sep 3rd. | 20:20 |
