      Falkon version (3.1.0-0mx19+1) and nightly flatpaks crash upon launch in antiX 17.1 when the command line option –disable-gpu is omitted.

      In other words this is how you must launch Falkon for it to work:

      falkon –disable-gpu

      or

      flatpak run org.kde.falkon –disable-gpu

      The reason is some underlying Qt issue the developers are aware of, but handle poorly.

        Thanks for the info – but why are you using 17.1?

        Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

        antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.
