QT issue. fixed by adding ~/.profile


 export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct
 ``` prob should include/mention this somewhere so people in the future know if something similar happens ig idk

@PhantomRex123 Tested, could reproduce, tested your fix, and it fixed it. Where did you find the fix?

I could add it to the FAQ

So its kinda weird, the issue starting when i changed from gnome to kde, and by kde setting the qt5 theme it failed to work, now when i saw the issue searched it up on google and found a website which i cannot find anymore lol however found this similar post https://forum.manjaro.org/t/stable-update-2021-07-23-kernels-nvidia-mesa-wine-firefox-thunderbird-virtualbox/74937/28 and i think by setting it to rather than qt5, the reason why i said is that after setting it to qt5 my whole kde setup gets messed up

QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=thorium-browser

now its weird cause when running this same exact configuration it seems that with specific qt themes the browser refuses to work

So i'll do a bit of testing here and there and try and update you on what works and what doesnt, cause im not very sure myself right now.

As for the images, it seems right now on my "gtk2" theme and "Windows" themes the browser doesnt work but the rest are working

PhantomRex123 commented 3 weeks ago

after further testing ive concluded that its the theme, and by having that line QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME i guess it just sets the default theme or something along those lines, but i removed that and with the "Fusion" theme it works, so right now only windows and gtk2 dont work and i assume its because they arent official so might aswell include this so people know

PhantomRex123 commented 3 weeks ago

even with this error thorium works - so im fairly confident its something with the themes
