I've followed the link and it doesn't seem to be the same issue. Although both problems pertain to the nw file, I can still launch TiddlyDesktop through ./nw
My problem's with getting the application to work. I can create a new wiki, but I can't get the wiki to open up using TiddlyDesktop. If I navigate to the place where I've saved the TW file then I can use Firefox to open up the tiddlywiki file, but I'm trying to run TW through TiddlyDesktop. If I open up a wiki file using TiddlyDesktop this is what I get: https://imgur.com/a/1wiCj5X And I can't close that file! Not even closing TiddlyDesktop gets the file with random date (https://imgur.com/a/1wiCj5X) to close. The only way to close it is to close the terminal from which I launched ./nw I forgot to mention: This is the message I get when I launch ./nw and TiddlyDesktop does open: ~/TiddlyDesktop$ ./nw [6521:6521:0603/160810.303573:ERROR:sandbox.cc(376)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process. The above error message that displays in the terminal can be visible here, above the TiddlyDesktop App ( https://imgur.com/a/xnHStTf) Thanks in advance On Tue, Jun 8, 2021 at 4:23 PM strikke...@gmail.com < strikkeglad...@gmail.com> wrote: > We had a similar problem earlier, discussed here > https://groups.google.com/g/tiddlywiki/c/rXzdNBF7Ozg/m/uxNOfqY-AwAJ > > I am using linux mint myself and start tiddlydesktop from an icon > (programstarter) on my desktop.
