Got a bit of a problem with the Flatpak OpenRGB.
I was working great yesterday and this morning will not launch.
Things tried:
ran from terminal and no launch and no error:
flatpak run org.openrgb.OpenRGB
flatpak run org.openrgb.OpenRGB --loglevel 6
Uninstalled and reinstalled from the software app.
Ran Timeshift to restore to a few days ago.
Dual booted into Win 11 to make sure lighting worked there and it did - no problems.
Does anyone have any clue?
Thanks!
flatpak going totally silent like that usually means it dies b4 any log line.
id try:
-flatpak run -v org.openrgb.OpenRGB 2>&1 | tee /tmp/openrgb.log
-journalctl --user -f in another terminal while u launch it
-flatpak override --user --device=all org.openrgb.OpenRGB
-flatpak override --user --filesystem=host org.openrgb.OpenRGB
then launch again. if the .deb / appimage from openrgb.org still works, the flatpak sandbox is blocking usb. paste the last bit of that -v log if its still blank.

I fixed it!
I checked the logs under Utilities and saw:
traps: openrgb[4195] general protection fault error:0 in libfontconfig.so.1.16.0
Did some research and Googled and found solution:
- Clear Your Fontconfig Cache
sudo fc-cache -r -v
- Clear the OpenRGB App Cache / Settings
mv ~/.config/OpenRGB ~/.config/OpenRGB.bak
After running those two commands OpenRGB now works!

I have moved this thread from Feedback to General Help.
I have also marked your post above as
Solution to maybe help others.
If you disagree with those changes, feel free to change back to as was. Zab
