Blank screen with local non-docker neko chromium

[deipkumar]

OS: macOS 14.2.1 arm64 (Mac Studio M2 Ultra) Tested browsers: Chromium

I have installed all the required dependencies for both base/Dockerfile.arm and chromium/Dockerfile.arm.

Dbus is running successfully:

Happy to collect debug/logs or explain the steps I took with more detail if that would help.

I am not sure about macOS and arm arch, if i could help you somehow. If you can see the remote cursor, then its only the browser failing. Is the chromium itself starting propery?
