Thanks for the report! will look into this.

@JeromeSchmied do you know whether or not you're using Wayland or X11?

Another question - do you know if you have vulkan graphics drivers installed?

(Some info here on that for arch, package depends on if you have Nvidia / AMD gpu or intel.): https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Vulkan

Normally logs would show graphics card info - but it seems to have failed before making it this far, wonder if we can improve this and gather GPU / graphics backend info earlier?

I have intel, I've had no vulkan, installed it now it works

Sweet!

I'm surprised it didn't automatically fall back to OpenGL, which we should work fine with.

We might want to double-check to make sure we are enabling the OpenGL backend.
