simply does not open, displays the window frame and immediately closes.

Try starting blender with flatpak run org.blender.Blender, does it show anything?

[alexb3d]

It says this:

$ flatpak run org.blender.Blender
/run/user/1000/gvfs/ non-existent directory
ERROR (gpu.shader): gpu_shader_2D_widget_base FragShader: 
      | 
   81 | layout(depth_any) out float gl_FragDepth;
      |         ^
      | Error: unrecognized layout identifier `depth_any'

Writing: /tmp/blender.crash.txt

So, what is in /tmp/blender.crash.txt ? Can you paste the contents here ?

[alexb3d]

What is the exact path to this file? Because in /tmp it is not there, in .var either.

[kevinsmia1939]

What hardware are you using?

[mbridon]

Try to find a file with a name "crash" then

[mbridon]

Find / -name crash

[mbridon]

Err, that was supposer to read starcrashstar

[mbridon]

Me ? Intel GPU 🤷‍♂️

It is an Intel i7 3770, integrated video Mesa Intel® HD Graphics 4000 (IVB GT2).

Hi, i7 3770 is decade old. It might not support newer openGL that Blender need. Can you show the output of glxinfo | grep "OpenGL" If the compatibility profile is lower than OpenGL 4.3, then it probably will not work. https://www.blender.org/download/requirements/

Apparently, I am obsolete. But it's only one 4.2 of 4.3 :D

Thank you for your help kevinsmia1939

With the latest update, it works! I found it strange that "blender" was unchecked for three generations of processors(i3, i5, i7).
