On my system, Signal Desktop 5.15.0 is now up and running. I'll write a bug report for the maintainer of the And regarding killing the application: Waiting worked on my system too (before applying the workaround), I just did not have the patience before you mentioned it... 😉 |

Bug Description
Since a few days, Signal Desktop 5.15.0 is stuck with a blue screen after startup. Sometimes, there is a short glimpse at the contact list before the blue screen appears. After that, Signal Desktop cannot be closed normally, but has to be killed.
The symptoms are similar to those described in #3281. I tried all the command line options mentioned there like
--disable-gpu
,--no-sandbox
,--disable-software-rasterizer
, etc., but this didn't help.Using
--enable-logging
, the following line appeared in the terminal:I would suppose that this is the main problem as a crashed renderer should explain the behavior. But so far I could not find out why the renderer process crashes.
Other electron apps do work properly on my system. Starting
electron
directly does work and shows the usual version information, other electron-based apps do work as well.What I haven't tried yet is emptying
.config/Signal
, re-linking to my phone and starting over. As a mean of last resort, this is of course possible, but I would prefer to keep the chat histories on my computer.Steps to Reproduce
Actual Result:
Signal get's stuck with an all-blue screen as shown in the screenshots in #3281
Expected Result:
Signal should start properly and be usable.
Screenshots
See #3281, looks the same here.
