[bug] app window fails under Linux with Nvidia gpu

[doums]

Describe the bug

Hi, under Arch Linux, since today I hit an issue where the window app open with a blank screen and this message is spamming the terminal

AcceleratedSurfaceDMABuf was unable to construct a complete framebuffer
AcceleratedSurfaceDMABuf was unable to construct a complete framebuffer
…

journal logs:

[drm:drm_new_set_master] *ERROR* [nvidia-drm] [GPU ID 0x00000100] Failed to grab modeset ownership

Note: My machine is NVIDIA gpu equipped, installed driver is 550.67-3

If I remove nvidia_drm.modeset=1 from kernel params, I get other logs

KMS: DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATE_DUMB failed: Permission denied
Failed to create GBM buffer of size 2524x827: Permission denied

Based on the logs I tried with KMS disabled completely (removing nvidia kernel modules and regenerating the initramfs) but without any success

Reproduction

npm create tauri-app@latest then cargo tauri dev (or npm run tauri dev)

Expected behavior

Oddly enough, I'm having similar problems trying to use https://github.com/tryphotino/photino.NET under Fedora (that's how I found this issue), both utilize gtkwebview so I'm guessing this might be a problem beyond Tauri/Photino.

Yup, as I thought, it's an issue with webkit2gtk being broken under 2.44 with Nvidia GPUs (https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/webkit2gtk/-/issues/1)

For your local dev environment, you can add WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 in /etc/environment for the time beeing.

Thank you, this also fixed other apps such as yelp
