Spotify Crashing on Launch on Linux, and all icons missing once theme applied. #304

First of all, let me present the exact steps I am taking.

  1. Install Spotify curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add - curl -sS https://download.spotify.com/debian/pubkey_0D811D58.gpg | sudo apt-key add - echo "deb http://repository.spotify.com stable non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/spotify.list sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install spotify-client sudo chmod a+wr /usr/share/spotify sudo chmod a+wr /usr/share/spotify/Apps -R

  2. Install Spicetify sudo curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/khanhas/spicetify-cli/master/install.sh | sh

  3. Set an alias for Spicetify sudo nano ~/.bashrc alias spicetify = '/home/[user[/spicetify-cli/spicetify' source ~/.bashrc

  4. Download Spicetify themes cd Downloads git clone https://github.com/morpheusthewhite/spicetify-themes cd spicetify-themes cp -r * ~/.config/spicetify/Themes

  5. Set themes cd ~/.config/spicetify/Themes spicetify config current_theme THEME_NAME spicetify apply


    Now that I have shown the steps - here are the issues:

  6. Spotify keeps crashing, [I don't know why] when I run it through the terminal this is what it shows - [1003/103506.826242:FATAL:gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(439)] GPU process isn't usable. Goodbye. Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Spotify seems to start working once I spam "Spotify" in the terminal. [but it crashing again & again is really annoying, how can I fix this?]

  1. Icons are missing, it looks terrible. image

Those are the two issues I have encountered. System info - Ubuntu 20.04, CPU - intel celeron, memory - 4 GB.

Can confirm on Arch Linux with Spicetify 1.1.0. Config was lost and after reapplying icons are missing. image

HEY. I had a similar issue to you guys, try installing with homebrew. It worked for me. Let me know if you have any issues and I'll try my best to help.

Can you guys reinstall Spotify then run

spicetify backup apply

spicetify backup apply

This worked perfectly for me. Not sure the cause but this fixed everything.

khanhas commented 4 years ago

You probably applied old backup on new Spotify version

I got this error with gpu process with fresh installation of spotify and spicetify. In rare cases when it launches it shows blank window (like here #94)

UPD. Not sure is it related to spicetify. Previously I used spotify from snap and it worked fine. I installed spotify from deb just to use it with spicetify. But even after complete removal of spicetify and reinstallation I still have troubles with gpu process, so I guess problem is in spotify itself.

Yeah, it worked with older version of spotify (http://repository.spotify.com/pool/non-free/s/spotify-client/spotify-client_1.1.26.501.gbe11e53b-15_amd64.deb)
