Hm, on my computer the flatpak version just launches fine. So I am left to guesswork here. Can please try to run KTouch with:

    flatpak run --device=dri org.kde.ktouch

and report back if this works?
Comment 2 Alex Bradatan 2019-10-17 21:01:33 UTC 
With `flatpak run --device=dri org.kde.ktouch` the application launches just fine. If it helps I also attached that output. Since it seems to be dri related, it may be of use to know that I am running a Nvidia gpu with proprietary drivers.

Comment 4 Sebastian Gottfried 2019-10-17 21:27:45 UTC 
Thanks for the response. Under Flatpak, applications are sandboxed and need to request permissions to access certain hard- and software components. With '--device=dri' you gave the permission to use OpenGL. I will add this to the Flatpak manifest of KTouch, so with next update it will works out of the box.

I have no idea why it I don't need this on my system, though.
