Issue in Ubuntu 21.10

[vashero]

When I try to Open the installed GUI 1.2.5, I get a processing mouse cursor... then Nothing....
I also reinstalled and same problem. .... When I install via terminal and try to run..... I get the following:

And then Nothing happens. Any help would be greatly appreciated... as I have 2K plots on this machine and would like to get them back up and going.

are you doing npm run electron from /chia-blockchain/chia-blockchain-gui/ ?

[vashero]

Yes, I have also tried installing and running GUI from deb package. This problem seemed to occur after a recent ubuntu update/upgrade

[loppefaaret]

i dont know what i was looking at last time i looked at this, but it is clearly showing that it is an GPU issue - do you have for instance some NVIDIA drivers installed for a GPU ? perhaps try and unload any GPU drivers, and revert back to default ubuntu provide modules ?

[vashero]

Ill check this and let you know. I may end up just upgrading the video card in it... as I don't do anything but chia on this machine, so I threw a Nvidia GTX 710 in it. It worked fine in the past, ill try to revert any updates to this driver.

[vashero]

That fixed it, Thanks!
