I keep trying to run pixieditor on linux mint, but when I try to run it with the --opengl flag, it gives me the same error message when running on Vulkan (that I need to pass the --opengl flag in a file that doesn’t exist.) and the few times it does try and run through open gl, it opens a tab in my browser to “pixieditor” and sits on an error page. I am not sure, exactly what the problem is.
Please provide:
- Logs from terminal with --opengl flag and without
- What is your desktop environment?
- Do you have Nvidia GPU? If so are you using proprietary drivers or open source?
My desktop environment is KDE Plasma
I have AMD gpu, I believe I am using drivers from AMD for it. (My laptop says it’s an AMD Radeon R2 Graphics)
Without passing the --opengl flag:
pixieditor
Initializing Drawie…
Vulkan support was reported as available, but no interop was found. Pass --opengl command
line argument to use OpenGL instead or enter “OpenGL” inside a file: ‘/home/earlgray/.lo
cal/share/PixiEditor/render_api.config’.

both cases it just sits at this message until I terminate the process.
