Do you see an empty digiKam window or is the GUI still being fully built? Maik And start digiKam in the terminal for more debug output with the Qt environment variable set: export QT_LOGGING_RULES="digikam*=true" Maik export says that "digikam*=true" is not a valid identifier. The GUI seems to be loaded completely. Welcome to DigKam 8.4.0, , tool bars and folders shown. What? The export command is not a parameter for digiKam and is executed beforehand, so no error message can occur. Maik Normally the binary file download window should open, the dialog is modal. Is this dialog possibly in the background? Maik Good guess. The first time I started digikam it asked if I wanted to install extra binaries. I ticked the boxes and proceeded with the start up. I think that dialogue stayed in the background. I started digikam again and looked for any hidden windows. Sure enough the extra files window was hidden. I removed the tick marks. Now Digikam starts normally. With other apps for instance kmail, when secondary window is opened it shows up in the task manager. Not so wiht digikam. Yes, I can confirm under Wayland. Under Wayland the dialog opens in the background, I am in the process of fixing it. Maik Here under openSUSE the window is also in the taskbar, but behind the digikam window.
