I use Gnome. I did update pip as the first step to installing eric7.
How long did you leave eric7 running? For me it ran for a period of time
before crashing. Mostly, it would crash while it was idle when I was
reading the documentation to learn how to use it, but not always.

Hi Patrick,
I am sorry to hear, that you gave up. Nevertheless I installed a fresh
openSUSE VirtualBox machine and got eric working in a Python virtual
environment with one little issue not related to eric-ide. I had to
update the 'pip' package of the environment because it was too old.
Thereafter PyQt6 was installed without an issue and eric started and
showed its initialization sequence.
Note: I installed openSUSE with the KDE Plasma desktop. Maybe that is
different to your VM.

I did install eric7 into a virtual environment as directed.
I didn't check for error logs but the problem has been so consistent
across multiple versions of OpenSuSE that I didn't care to
investigate further. One thing that could be an issue is that I'm
running Eric7 on VirtualBox virtual machines. Since I don't have
problems with other applications I don't believe it's a VirtualBox
issue but thought I would throw that out there.
If I get in the mood to test again I will look at the logs. But, for
now I have uninstalled Eric7.

Hi Patrick,
I just tested eric7 in my openSUSE 15.5 VM and have to report, that
it works as expected. Therefore I think, that your issue is somehow
related to your installation.
1. Did you install eric into a Python virtual environment as
recommended by the eric installation instructions?
2. Please start eric in terminal window and check for error
messages. On some systems Qt6 is reporting a missing package
(libxcb-cursor0) without that it will stop. The installation
instruction of the eric web site contain such a hint.
3. Check the directory ~/.eric7 for the presence of an error log. If
such a log exists, please send it to me.
4. Try to start eric in a terminal with "eric7_ide --debug" and send
the debug log file to be found in "~/.eric7" to me.
Hope these steps will help to solve your issue and you are able to
enjoy eric7.
Regards, Detlev

Just installed Eric7 onto an OpenSuSE Leap 15.5 machine. Eric7
keeps crashing. The first time I had to restart the application.
Several times after that I lost my desktop session and had to log
in again.
Eric6 had the same issue and I've tried installing it on several
different releases of OpenSuSE. Don't know if it's just an OpenSuSE
thing. I haven't tried to install it on any other OS.
