Figma Desktop 126.10.10 for Linux, using Electron 43.7.11.

Changes

  • Restore builds from current Figma installers and update ASAR tooling (#22).
  • Improve AppImage startup, prerequisite checks and extraction fallback (#13).
  • Detect the installer version and matching Electron runtime; add renderer controls and launcher regression tests (#30).
  • Restore local font loading in Figma 126.10+ (#28).
  • Fix root ownership and file permissions in deb/rpm packages (#31, fixes #26).

Downloads

All packages are for x86_64 / amd64. The same package supports X11 and Wayland; separate desktop builds are not needed.

  • figma-desktop-126.10.10-amd64.AppImage — portable build.
  • figma-desktop_126.10.10_amd64.deb — Debian/Ubuntu package.
  • figma-desktop-126.10.10-1.x86_64.rpm — RPM package.
  • SHA256SUMS — checksums for the three packages.

All three packages were built with the repository's build.sh. Verify downloaded files with sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS from the download directory.

X11 and Wayland

X11 is the default backend, including XWayland when launched in a Wayland session. For native Wayland, fully quit Figma first, then run:

FIGMA_USE_WAYLAND=1 FIGMA_RENDERER=software ./figma-desktop-126.10.10-amd64.AppImage

Remove FIGMA_USE_X11=1 from your environment before selecting native Wayland. If canvas rendering fails with the default renderer, try FIGMA_RENDERER=software. The same environment variables work with the installed figma-desktop launcher.

Validation and known limitations

  • 62 automated tests passed. The full AppImage, deb and rpm build paths passed; native package ownership and modes were inspected.
  • AppImage application content was tested on Ubuntu 24.04.5 / GNOME 46: X11 with automatic SwiftShader, native Wayland with software rendering, and XWayland with software rendering. Canvas, local fonts, input, resize/maximize and saved login after a controlled process restart were checked. The rebuilt release contains the same app.asar and Electron executable as that tested build.
  • Default/automatic rendering on the tested Wayland setup still failed canvas/WebGL checks; use the software renderer workaround. Direct NVIDIA hardware rendering was not validated.
  • Full process exit through the application's Quit command remains unconfirmed; the restart checks used controlled process termination after saving work. Fresh browser sign-in/logout was not repeated for this release.
  • deb/rpm clean installation, upgrade and runtime on their target distributions remain unverified. Fedora/Mesa (#23), cloud font weight handling (#15), MCP (#19), drag-and-drop (#12), pinch zoom (#11) and the Wayland tab strip issue (#29) are not claimed fixed.
