Comment 1 Andrey 2020-01-28 18:30:40 UTC

Please, someone confirm or disprove it. I'm not sure it's not related with my setup..
Also if it works for you, please post your flatpak list

Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2020-02-13 15:16:17 UTC

It's indeed a setup problem. Discover needs working OpenGL/GLX drivers. Please ask for help in a forum of your distribution.

Comment 3 Andrey 2020-02-13 15:53:07 UTC

Unfortunately, I didn't manage to get help from the other places.
@Christoph Feck, if it work for you, could you post your flatpak list?

Comment 4 Christoph Feck 2020-02-13 18:44:55 UTC

I don't use flatpak, sorry. Do you know who is the publisher of the Discover flatpak?

Comment 5 Andrey 2020-02-13 22:02:25 UTC

It's KDE team AFAIK. So here is the right place to ask help I assume, not sure why you decided to close it. We don't even know if it works at all.

Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2020-02-13 22:26:28 UTC

Let me reassign to developers with some knowledge of flatpak, in the hope they could help you.
