Invisible top bar

[kreativK]

The top bar is invisible. I can still search for stuff, but I can't see what I type and I can't minimize or close the program as usual because those buttons are gone.

When running the program in the console with the "chromium-browser" command, the following is flooding the console:

[24129:24172:0801/163633.198269:ERROR:client_shared_image.cc(294)] Unable to create ScopedMapping

My image is kinoite-asus-nvidia-userns-hardened and I use unstable hardened kargs.

When did this happen? Did you just launch it and it was gone or was it never there?

It worked when I first installed my system a few days ago but I switched to brave and didn't run it again until yesterday. Now it's just gone, can't get it back with a restart.

[RKNF404]

Odd, I'm assuming you are certain you were running hardened chromium when it did work, because it shipped recently so there is a chance you weren't.

I installed the system on the 29th of july. I'm certain I ran the browser that was packaged with secureblue, named chromium web browser and with the blue chromium icon, which should be the same one causing errors right now. I don't know if anything has changed since then and I don't know if you just shipped regular chromium or hardened at the time.

29th of July

Lol, thats the day it shipped. All the info around the icon is the same between hardened and regular chromium.
Would you be willing to test run it under X11 if you haven't already? (You would need to enable XWayland)

Sorry, I see now that it actually was the 28th. I toggled XWayland and ran chromium-browser --backend=x11-backend.so --xwayland, it made no difference.

I see now that before it starts spamming the konsole with the errors provided above, it gives these errors:

Did you change your home directory /partition?

What happens if you clear the browsee cache by deleting the content in $HOME/.cache/google-chrome/Default/Cache ?

[RKNF404]

@34N0 Cache is disabled, these errors are normal. So are the wasm errors.

@kreativK

--backend=x11-backend.so

I'm not sure this works, maybe it does. I meant try chromium-browser --ozone-platform=x11

This fixed it!

[RKNF404]

@kreativK Awesome, I guess chromium isn't too stable on wayland+nvidia yet.

Could also just be a wayland+nvidia thing relating to decorations, idk.

[RKNF404]

you can set it to always run in x11 in about:flags -> search "Preferred Ozone platform" -> set it to x11.

Yeah maybe. Something similar happened with brave, it couldn't open without --ozone-platform=wayland, but I could change the ozone flag to Wayland and I didn't need to enable XWayland.

This weirdly doesn't work, and setting it to Wayland doesn't work either. I have to manually run it with "chromium-browser --ozone-platform=x11", otherwise the top bar stays invisible.

I haven't changed my home directory or partition

... huh. Strange. They do the same thing? Does --ozone-platform=x11 or --ozone-platform-hint=x11 show under Command Line in about:version when you run it without the commandline flag but with the about:flags toggle?
