@Gwen-Dragon Yes, I did! It was solved. Thank you!
vivaldi-stable is already the newest version (3.8.2259.37-1).

@Gwen-Dragon i just have, with a link to this discussion as well

@ultravio1et I just installed LMDE 4 32 bit on an old laptop, I found success with an older version of Vivaldi (3.6.2165.34) and it runs great. It is not that old, from February of this year. I didn't try anything newer, but at least for now I'm sticking with this version, hope this helps you too. Make sure you delete the version you have before installing the older version.

Hello, folks.
Based on my own experience, I can confirm what has been reported so far about the latest Vivaldi release, 3.8.2259.37, for Linux:
- Vivaldi 3.8.2259.37 64-bit works as designed on Linux 64-bit.
(Linux Mint 19.3 64-bit, MX Linux 19.4 64-bit, on different hardware,
having different GPU's: Intel, Nvidia) - Vivaldi 3.8.2259.37 32-bit on Linux 32-bit does not start up to the
application window.
Instead a more or less long error message is displayed in the terminal
window, explaining why it does not start up. - On my machines I read 2 different error message blocks, depending
on whether the GPU is Intel or NVidia. - On the same machines, where Vivaldi 3.8.2259.37 32-bit fails to start up,
the previous Vivaldi 3.7.2218.58 32-bit still worked flawlessly.
Tried to attach my system specs and the error messages displayed by Vivaldi 3.8 when it aborted the startup, but the message got discarded as spam.
Will try in several messages, perhaps this will work.Cheers,
Karl - Vivaldi 3.8.2259.37 64-bit works as designed on Linux 64-bit.

Previous post continued.
Could not add all the details, because the mssage got flagged and blocked as spam immediately.
So uploaded the whole technical details to termbin.com.
Will add the URL now, hoping this is permitted:It is the system information for 2 different Linux Mint 32-bit machines and the error messages, which Vivaldi 3.8 displays, when trying to start it up.
Cheers,

Did anyone report a bug for the 32bit Vivaldi not starting on Linux?
Yes, e.g. I did:
Summary: Vivaldi 3.7.2218.58 32-bit for Linux cannot start the UI: "OpenGL ES 2.0 is not supportable."
Key: VB-79316
Project: Vivaldi Browser
Environment: Vivaldi version: 3.8.2259.37
Operating System: Linux Mint 19.3 32-bit (based on Ubuntu 18.04 32-bit)Karl

It seems solved by newest version Vivaldi v3.8.2259.40 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
I just received it via Update Manager in Linux Mint and it started without tweaking any extra switches etc,, Life is Good -
I cannot use ant version over 3.6.- - - on two Debian based 32 bit systems. I am running Mint LMDE 4 on one and MX Linux 19.2 or .4 on the other. Can someone link me to a solution for these? I tried 3.8 on MX Linux today and had to uninstall it and reinstall 3.6 again. I thought someone said there was a workaround but I don’t see it in the forums, thanks in advance.

SteveSteve this solution worked perfectly for me to run 3.8:
@ultravio1et The parameter to starting Vivaldi need to be added in the vivaldi*.desktop file and the application registering for protocol https and https (depends on which Desktop Environment).
For me it is ./.local/share/plasma_icons/vivaldi-stable.desktop
Append in all Exec= lines a -disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox
For example
Instead:
Exec=/usr/bin/vivaldi-stable %U
this
Exec=/usr/bin/vivaldi-stable -disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox %U -
I use 32bit linux and sadly i have not been able to update to v3.8 because it refuses to start...I have a problem with some of the comments here because if it were my graphics driver then how come a vanilla 32bit chromium installs on my system just fine.
i installed chromium in an attempt to narrow down this issue and i do not believe it is a driver issue but a vivaldi issue.
Hope a fix is imminent. -

Hope a fix is imminent.Could you try with the switch
--use-gl=desktop
and see if it does anything in your case as well? -
I have submitted a bug report. I love this browser and i fully understand that 32bit is kind of on life support so im not expecting miracles and a new laptop would be beneficial for me.

Hello!
My system:
linux mint ulyssa 20.1
latest vivaldi version
64bit systemI have a similar problem but vivaldi won't start with the "--disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox" command, nor any of the other commands suggested in the post (--disable-gpu, --disable-extensions and --user-data-dir=$TEMP/VIV-TEST). I also tried 3.7 and 3.6 versions of vivaldi.
Depending on the command, I get small differences to the error message. I'll copy one here:
~$ vivaldi-stable
libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)
[15189:15189:0525/112930.589757:ERROR:viz_main_impl.cc(150)] Exiting GPU process due to errors during initialization

Trappe pour point d'arrêt et de trace (core dumped)I'm a noob about console commands so I'd be happy to input ones anyone can give me to diagnose/give more precise informations than what I tell you/try out stuff, but I have no idea what to try myself.
Thank you for any information or help!

@gwen-dragon Not sure what you mean exactly.
I tried "-use-gl=desktop" (command unkown so I guess I have to put it after vivaldi - but that's just a guess and I don't know for sure, that's how unfamiliar I am with console), "vivaldi -use-gl=desktop" and "vivaldi-stable -use-gl=desktop". Same errors or similar.vivaldi-stable --use-gl=desktop

Am I the only one still having issues with launching vivaldi? I've come to really like the user experience on this browser and I'd much rather not having to change back to another one - this is not meant as the "I'll go use that other software"-threat, just an honest feedback and hope that this issue gets fixed.
I'd love to be able to have a bigger part in it being solved but like I said, I have no idea how to do that. -
@ladro139
Hi, one user report on page 3 it is solved with the latest 3.8.2259.42-1 version, are you up to date?
No need for swithches like sandbox or openGL.
Is it may a window manager issue?Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin
Hi, thanks for your reply!
I am have version 3.8.2259.42-1 installed, yes.
Not sure what a window manager is or what issues you're referring to. I did not install a specific window manager, but I guess there has to be one pre-installed because, well, I am using windows as an interface How would I go about checking that hypothesis?Again, I'm sorry that I'm not autonomous at all. I tried searching for "window manager issues linux mint" on the internet and on the forums here, and linux mint's forum, but I get completely lost in dozens of posts about very varied issues and it's never obvious which one could maybe help me.

It is not solved as the 32bit linux version is not launching.I have returned to firefox until a solution is found.
Firefox works perfectly on 32bit linux so not sure what the chromium upstream issue is.
