Recent signal desktop issues white / black / blue screens, --disable-gpu helps

Hi there, maybe posting this here helps someone (and if it's for debugging only...) Running Tumbleweed on several Ryzen machines, I have recently experienced strange behaviour by signal-desktop. It seems like all versions I tried, via opi, had the same or similar behaviour: After starting signal-desktop via desktop icon or from shell with "signal-desktop" resulted in an empty window, some all white, some all blue, some all black. Not usable, though the notifications kept coming in. I seem to have fixed this behaviour by adding the flag --disable-gpu to the command line. I found this info here: https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/4803210551706-Troubleshooting-g... -- Best Regards - Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Markus Feilner, Feilner IT - 20 years of open services - Sustainable Open Source Strategy, Networking, Politics, Journalism Knowledge Management, Rubber Ducks, Trainings, Workshops, Documentation https://www.feilner-it.net, 93059 Regensburg Wöhrdstr. 10, +49 170 302 7092 (+Signal) https://mastodon.cloud/@mfeilner https://mastodon.social/@FeilnerIT PGP: 40A3C306F96133067C11CFD9A958A906268C9F0A http://www.feilner-it.net/files/MFpub.asc Xing: http://www.xing.com/profile/Markus_Feilner LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markusfeilner @mfeilner: Mastodon, Matrix, Jabber, ...
