Just installed the RPM on my new laptop with Nobara (Fedora based) distro. The tab bar overlaps its text and does not work! Please help.
-
Looks like it happens based on what tab I'm hovering on
-
It's livable with dark/black text but still broken

Hi, this can be a problem with GPU/driver and Vivaldi, you can try a flag:
vivaldi://flags/#disable-accelerated-2d-canvas
I forgot if enabled or disabled is the default, on my systems it doesn´t matter, simply try.
Please add your Vivaldi version, GPU and window manager.Cheers, mib
-
Anyways It didn't work. -
@kzhe
You meant the flag does not change anything?
Check with Nvidia settings if vSync is enabled, try to disable it.
You have to restart the xserver or reboot.Cheers, mib
-
How would I disable vSync? I do not have an active windows partition.
-
@kzhe In NVidia Panel on Linux. You do not have one?
Then use programnvidia-settings
-
I found it, I can't find Vsync tho
-
-
Wait that's not supported... what do I use?
-
@DoctorG I dont see where to disable VSync
-
@kzhe
I don´t have a Nvidia card anymore and my nvidia setting looks completely different 6 month ago.
Please search the web, there are thousands of pages about nvidia settings and vsync.
Iirc you can even disable it from the command line as root:/usr/bin/nvidia-settings -a 'SyncToVBlank=0'
Keep in mind to set it back to 1 if it does not change anything for the Vivaldi issue.
More important, no guarantees, such settings can break your system.Cheers, mib

I checked and even switched to ubuntu. Didn't find a way yet, still looking. Please help. I've looked on the internet furiously. No luck at all for finding anything.

The glitch makes vivaldi unusable and persists across linux distros. -
@kzhe
The error message is clear, the Nvidia driver is not working.
Anyway, I am on Linux and we have many Linux user here in the forum.
I had Nvidia and now I am on AMD and Intel GPU, no problems.
Can you check another Chromium browser?
Chromium should be on the most distributions.
Firefox is completely different, you cant compare with it.Cheers, mib
-
Brave works no problem.
-
@mib2berlin WAIT! I FIXED IT! I... YESS!!! I went into flags and disabled all the GPU flags. YESSS!
-
@kzhe
Cool, have fun to test Vivaldi.Cheers, mib

All in vivaldi://flags i highly experimental and can cause issues depending on GPUs and drivers.
