Hello @workingCPU

Sorry to hear that you are running into this issue.

Have you been able to get the application to not show any of those error messages at all?

We have found that some Nvidia drivers do not function properly with our application so you may find better luck in trying out a different driver, or if you have integrated graphics on your CPU to try those as well.

You may also try switching between x11 and Wayland to see if that resolves your issue. We officially support Ubuntu, so there may be nuances with Debian that we are not aware of currently.

Hello, thanks for your reply!   no, I have not been able to run pieces at all.   Do you have some hint how I can probably run Pieces with a different driver than other applications? Is that possible at all?   Thanks in advance!   Chris       Gesendet: Montag, 30.

@workingCPU Hi there. The issue seems to be related to flutter. We've seen other issues on github that are similar. Like this one.

Particularly the user LucasXu0 states

Hi there! There's a workaround worth trying: 
before running the application, 
execute this command: 

export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1.

Be sure to launch pieces from the same session so that the export is picked up.

Give it a shot! Eager to see if this works for you.
