mails display blank screen with webkitgtk 2.36.0 #717

Open Hello71 opened 2 years ago

after upgrading from webkit-gtk 2.34.6 to 2.36.0, opening both HTML and plaintext mails result in a completely blank new tab. the tab bar is still visible, and it is possible to use keyboard shortcuts (e.g. r opens configured text editor, V displays raw message) but the message area remains blank. when composing a new message, the controls (From, Markdown, etc) are visible and usable but the message is not. there seems to be no relevant console messages when starting astroid or opening mails.

Same problem here. But my console output contains:

EGLDisplay Initialization failed: EGL_NOT_INITIALIZED
Cannot create EGL context: invalid display (last error: EGL_SUCCESS)

I have found a workaround, Try starting astroid with WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1. Source: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/169170
