[Bug]: Miru v5 does not launch on linux

[ghost]

Preflight checklist

• I have searched the issue tracker for a bug report that matches the one I want to file, without success.
• I have searched the frequently asked questions for a solution that fixes this problem, without success.
• I have checked that I'm using the latest stable version of the app.

What app version are you using?

5.0.2

What operating system version are you using?

Linux

Expected Behavior

Miru launches with no issues

Actual Behavior

When attempting to launch miru v5 on linux, the app displays a blank screen for 3 secs and then crashes, giving this (electron?) error

Need testing, but it's probably electron issue, maybe related to one of the flags set here that changed behaviours between the version bumps.
I cannot reproduce this on wayland+nvidia proprietary 550.54.14 drivers, would help sending more info on GPU, current driver, distro, window manager, display server, etc.
The relevant output of inxi -Fxxrzc0 should be enough, together with the method you used to install (AppImage or deb) to help isolate the problem.
Meanwhile, from discord discussion, running miru with miru --in-process-gpu should work, tho I have no clue what implications this flag has on actual usage.

[ghost]

Indeed, it seems to work by using the --in-process-gpu flag. I'm running arch with x11/i3/nvidia-dkms with no compositor, so not technically supported. I've also tried running the appimage with the same result.

[ThaUnknown]

no-sandbox likely causes this, but since we've got no reproduction this is being labeled as a "linux config issue"

[CaptainD54321]

Can replicate this issue on my linux machine, crashes with identical errors as above unless I launch with the --in-process-gpu flag, here's output from inxi -Fxxrzc0:

This also occurs on my arch system. Some digging later I found this might be an electron issue or possibly even chromium itself. I ensured I have all of the appropriate libva drivers present on my AMD integrated graphics system with no avail. --in-process-gpu was the only one that stopped the crashing.

[ThaUnknown]

@VictorGamerLOL @CaptainD54321 @rainfallmelonflysong I've released https://github.com/ThaUnknown/miru/releases/tag/v5.0.7 which is a beta, download and install manually, check if issue persists

[ghost]

@ThaUnknown Tried 5.0.7 and the issue sadly persists (same behaviour and same --in-process-gpu workaround), same with 5.0.10

[VictorGamerLOL]

@ThaUnknown works for me. The activities I usually do that induce the crashing, like getting the popup to choose a torrent, no longer do. And this was 5.0.7 not 5.0.10. I am using the Appimage version.

Some more info if it is of any relevance:

Edit: 5.0.10 also does not crash.

I retract my words. Aggressively scrolling still induces a GPU process exited unexpectedly: exit_code=133 but not enough for it to be considered unusable and crash the entire app. Still stands.

And I retract them again because it seems like the main cause if this is hovering for too long on a torrent entry and getting a tooltip. The moment the tooltip appears the app turns white and 5 seconds later it closes.

[CaptainD54321]

Huh I swore I posted this reply the other day, but apparently github ate it: @ThaUnknown I tried both 5.0.7 and the latest version (5.0.12) and my issue (Miru crashing immediately on launch) persists if I don't use the --in-process-gpu flag.
