Description

[Description of the bug or feature]

Steps to Reproduce

1. Downloaded the IOTA wallet from https://github.com/iotaledger/wallet/releases/download/v2.5.6/iota-2.5.6.x86_64.rpm
2. Installed the RPM on my Fedora 27
3. Launched the app properly, chose to make a "light" wallet.

Expected behavior: Shouldn't I be configuring my wallet's seed then?

Actual behavior: The window is there but the background is empty (grey the first time, green the other times) See the screenshot below.

Versions

Fedora 27 with Gnome Shell desktop (and wayland window manager, and the radeon graphics pilot) IOTA 2.5.6

I've just tried and after having put the required neighboring nodes, I click start, and the same window (asking for the neighboring nodes) simply re-appears.

Got same issue with my wallet just installed. Can I help you somehow?

Could be related to #986

I can confirm this issue for Fedora 27/Xfce with 2.5.6/RPM and 2.5.(3-6)/tar.gz There was no warning when started from a shell, not even with --verbose and --debug. libXss.so.1 was installed on my system. On Fedora26/Xfce 2.5.6/tar.gz seems to work as expected.

In my case - I ran into the same issue on F27/gnome/Xorg session, amdgpu open source driver. Somewhere I read a reference that this could be related to OpenCL - then I could work around this problem enabling OpenCL from amdgpu-pro. In my install, I manually installed just the closed source AMD openCL libraries, inspired by this: https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=11417 Then: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/amdgpu-pro/lib64 application_name

I had done this for darktable and GIMP, and when I tried the same for this client, it worked, the seed prompt showed up and the client connected. It seems a working OpenCL install is needed

@arigit Good point. Indeed my Fedora 27 system uses an ATI X1400 while my Fedora 26 is running with Intel graphics. @all Can others facing this issue either confirm or disprove the ATI/AMD graphics thesis?
