Adrien, My quick Wiki search did produce a page about Flatpak, and it includes information about the video driver problem:
"Nvidia GPU Linux has had ongoing issues with Nvidia graphics drivers since early 2023. If you have an Nvidia GPU and GnuCash can't display reports or crashes when you try, run flatpak run --env=WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 org.gnucash.GnuCash " https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Flatpak I'm betting the page could use an update. > On 10/02/2026 11:46 AM PDT Adrien Monteleone <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > There are a few long-standing issues on various platforms that I don't > see well documented, or the info isn't quite where one might expect. > > For example, there are dedicated landing pages for Windows & Mac, but > not one I can find for Linux/BSD. > > The Windows page has a 'Known Issues' section. > > I think a good candidate to add there would be an answer to the > seemingly sticky and recurring issue of the old installation not being > properly cleaned up upon upgrade with users getting (to them) strange > errors of missing files, etc. > > Another good candidate would be the long-standing *nix Nvidia (and now > maybe AMD) Blank Reports issue with the now two, workarounds. > > Those might both be good candidates, at least for the foreseable future, > for the FAQ, because they are indeed frequently asked. > > At the least, I'd like to add text to cover those, but I'd also like to > create a Linux/BSD landing page pointing to the various scattered > relevant info.
