Cannot open preinstalled hardened chromium in secure blue #88

Closed Cicindis closed 1 month ago

Cicindis commented 1 month ago

I cannot open hardened-chromium neither from the apps or from the command line.

flatpak run org.chromium.Chromium
error: app/org.chromium.Chromium/x86_64/master not installed

It doesn't show in FlatSeal either but the Chromium Web Browser app does appear.

Hardened-chromium is not a flatpak, to run from commandline enter chromium-browser.

Cicindis commented 1 month ago

It shows this error when entering chromium-browser.

chromium-browser
/usr/bin/nvidia-smi

Run rm ~/.config/chromium/Singleton*

It worked! Thank you

@Cicindis great, but you shouldn't need to run from the command line. It sounds like you previously or currently have a chromium flatpak desktop file installed.

I did install one when I started getting the error, but after I deleted it with the app settings & data from the Software app the same issue kept happening. The error started happening after I installed emacs with rpm-ostree and restarted my computer. I have to run the command rm ~/.config/chromium/Singleton* when restarting my computer to use hardened-chromium. Maybe it could be related to this error? I did have it with other apps and had to use this command to be able to open them: flatpak override --user --env=GSK_RENDERER=ngl com.jeffser.Alpaca(This is just for the Alpaca app).

@Cicindis If you are on an nvidia image with an nvidia optimus laptop, then you almost certainly just need to run this:
