2. Try to start Krita from an AppVM.

I was not able to confirm in debian-8, I have no problem running it (didn't try fedora-23).

maybe try running it from the command line and see what errors come out? you can also send the run command from dom0 if you think there may be Qubes-specific errors.

Same for me, on fedora-23. But: started in from terminal, not menu entry. Because unrelated bug in my testing environment prevented creating menu entries at all...

It works now apparently, both by starting it from terminal and the menu. Seems that I'd to reboot Qubes to get it to work.
