Possible Bazaar Bug
I've just loaded up my PC and although Bazaar has been on for a few days now and worked without a problem, it's just decided not to load (crashes on startup). Running via the terminal gives the following error
(bazaar:6882): Gtk-WARNING : 16:18:03.543: Unknown key gtk-modules in /home/Gage/.config/gtk-4.0/settings.ini
(bazaar:6882): Adwaita-WARNING : 16:18:03.603: Using GtkSettings:gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme with libadwaita is unsupported. Please use AdwStyleManager:color-scheme instead.
The Bazaar service is not running.
The following commands will start the daemon:
bazaar service
bazaar window --auto-service
bazaar open ...
Exiting...
Assuming it's some sort of bug as I haven't changed anything for a while. The only thing that's changed is just standard steam game updates. My theme has been the same since I installed it months ago.

try updating the system again, there's now the fix for these crashes
after that do a reboot and open bazaar to see if the issue persists
Did that already, said there was nothing to update from system update bu the problem is still there
post the output of
rpm-ostree status thenAlso tried removing the line in the settings.ini, and removing the ini file entirely. Still the same issue with the exiting but doesn't complaint about the ini
you don't have to delete config file at all

But it did load!
huh
right click bazaar and edit application, screenshot it
how about
cat /usr/share/applications/io.github.kolunmi.Bazaar.desktopRun that in terminal?
yes
Is it worth rebasing to the testing branch and back again?
idk why the fixes arent applied, but you can fix it manually by adding
GSK_RENDERER=opengl to environment variables (this is the newer fix apparently)That's sorted it thank you. Last time I had a bug, it had been bug fixed but not on the image I have (Asus Nvidia) so maybe same again š
no longer needed apparently
really? i still see the sed in the containerfile
I'll leave it in for now anyway as it's fixed the problem for me but I assume I'm best leaving this open as a bug for the image
@asen23 thanks very much š

Hi everyone. Thanks @asen23 : it worked for me too by adding GSK_RENDERER=opengl to environment variables by editing Bazaar application (with right click bazaar and edit). It fixed the issue.
I just did this cause my Bazaar suddenly stopped opening, works perfectly. Thanks.
It wasnt working for me either, tried this but does seem to help. Getting this error:
I think I need to change the theme somewhere, at least from the warning message here
you need to run this
env GSK_RENDERER=opengl bazaar window --auto-service not bazaar onlyso is this a 1 time thing or every time for now?
no
thats to see logs if still crash
ok
did not crash when I ran this command just now
It opens, but only as long as the terminal is open
I tried to even unpin Bazaar and repin the new instance, but it still crashes
btw at least it opens in terminal so thank you asen23!
did you edit the application like suggested above?
sorry edit it?
you mean in the command line argument?
doesn't work
no, in environment variable
sorry I'm a bit new, tryign to find it
ahhh ok
just above the program line
I had it in enviroment and in terminal line on the advanced pag
trying now
interesting.. it opened but error occured: failed to load local flatpack bundle '/home/myname/bazaar': Failed to open file: open (failed): No such file or directory
screenshot your application setting
but when I close it opens just fine
it's just working weird
sec
but if I click close, it seems to work fine
not the application but the application edit window
the one that you added environment variable
oh sec
you need to change it like this @Asune
but the environment variable field should be this
GSK_RENDERER=opengldone
trying again
I don't understand it
I put the full line into environment variable but it migrates to command-line argument
is that normal?
what is the current setting
I did exacty what you said.. put in " env GSK_RENDERER=opengl bazaar window --auto-service " into env variable
but it looks like this
no
i said put
GSK_RENDERER=opengl in the environment variable
no more no lessoh
yes that's done
and command-line argument is: window --auto-service env window --auto-service %U
is that correct?
no
look at the image i replied
its the correct one + env variable i said
does this look right?
yes
k trying
works!
thank you!!
I'm new to bazzite (usually a debian LMDE user) but I'm tired of windows and debian dual boot so trying it out
this bazaar bug was the first bug I found
thank you for helping!, much appreciated!
still crashing for me with this config, any idea? I can get it to work if I launch from cmd line with the env setting and args
EDIT: it works after a reboot
Was encountering this issue yesterday. Updated system after work today and it's fixed
so, i had the same problem, the GSK_RENDERER=opengl did Not work for me.
What worked ... strange enough, was changing my theme to another and then back again. š§
