Schildichat UI is broken on arch linux #248

Closed Juggo0 closed 1 month ago

Recently I updated arch linux and for some time schildichat UI has completely been broken. (Not sure when exactly it broke, I only noticed this yesterday.) Sometimes it's just a black or grey screen, sometimes it looks corrupted:

I can still hover over elements and click them, so the functionality is not broken, but the UI doesn't update or fix itself.

I tried running it on KDE and hyprland, but both end up like this. Flatpak version doesn't have this issue.

What GPU are you running? I've noticed that it works on Nvidia, but breaks on my AMD iGPU. Running Arch + xmonad, installed from the AUR bin package.

I'm using an AMD Radeon RX 6800. I'm guessing that's the issue then?

I was able to work around this issue by launching schildichat with --disable-gpu-driver-bug-workarounds. (source)

Update: after reading my link more, I figured that deleting ~/.config/SchildiChat/GPUCache may be the better fix.

Yup, this fixed the issue. Thank you! :)
