try to start it with --disable-gpu or --no-sandbox

[qunYp3dZSyLjoEoEg]

Do you maybe know how I could enable the --no-sandbox option by default when simply starting it from my desktop? I can set up an alias to do that and then disown the process so that I don't have to have the console-window I started it from open, but I still wondered.

[Sheepux]

app.disableHardwareAcceleration() isn't currently included in the app
Try to update your graphical drivers, they're most probably the culprit

[qunYp3dZSyLjoEoEg]

It doesn't work if I only use the --disable-gpu option, it's only working with --no-sandbox, and then I don't need to disable my gpu. Though I do get the same error, my exact cmd-output is: (included at the end of the message). And I should definitely have updated gpu-drivers, I use arch btw (well garuda to be exact but arch usually has up-to-date packages so that should be fine). Also, could you point me to some resource where I could understand/learn what --no-sandbox does?

Weirdly enough though on my laptop it works without any issues, even though it's just another arch-based distro on there.

also, try with hakuneko nightly version

[qunYp3dZSyLjoEoEg]

Thanks, have tried the nightly version too though the problem still persists. Not all that bad now that I have a fix for it, thanks for your help!

[Sheepux]

you could give a try with our next version to see if the issue is solved : https://github.com/manga-download/haruneko (you'd have to build the whole thing as we're still in the WIP stage)

[dtantono]

for my situation, it turns out that I need to enable hybrid graphics switching instead of rely on dgpu if you don't want that extra --no-sandbox

[AvianAnalyst]

I also have this problem, --no-sandbox works for me as well. I'm on endeavourOS (arch based).
@dtantono do you have any resources you could share on doing that? My computer only has one GPU is that still a thing? When I looked it up I was seeing stuff about laptops with multiple GPUs

[AvianAnalyst]

I'm working around this by editing the .desktop entry in /usr/application/ to include the start up argument. I also had to change the path in the exec line to /usr/bin/hakuneko-destop it used to be some library file? not sure if thats correct or on purpose
