Simply put, it looks like you will not be able to run LibreOffice with Skia / Vulkan vector shaders. Might improve with an AMD Vulkan driver change, or not. Otherwise, stay out of the SafeMode for doing configuration--it doesn't persist. And, your LibreOffice install behaves as expected. Editing the registrymodification.xcu to copy in the UseSkia and ForceSkiaRaster stanzas at the 1:18 mark is all that you need. Edit to toggle the ForceSkiaRaster "True" at 5:10 mark is where you need to be for running LibreOffice. You can edit it to "False" to test the Vulkan rendering (with either GPU set from "Switchable Graphics"). And if/when the Vulkan graphics tests fail, the stanza will be reset to "True"--leaving you with UseSkia and ForceSkiaRaster both true. You can set both "False" to force GDI rendering paths, non-Skia. To be able to denylist your AMD RX 5500M dGPU (which actually only avoids running the Vulkan graphics testing and sets ForceSkiaRaster) we add the device and Vulkan driver details to the denylist. We have both the iGPU, and dGPU details in comment 7 from GLview, just a little reluctant to deny both as we've had other OpenGL era and Vulkan issues with AMD "Switchable Graphics" (Adrenaline, or Win10/11 integrated) and nVidia "Optimus" (nVidia control panel, or Win10/11 integrated). So, I think you are good for now--but check your drivers from time to time and see if Vulkan behaves. Setting => NAB as the Skia tests are doing what they should, and we can't really control the Vulkan driver support per GPU. p.s. -- noticed you have the Java based Nonlinear Solver extension enabled in your install, you can uncheck it in the install wizard and that will save several seconds of config during LO launch. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
