Vivaldi don't start
-
Hi guys, Im new to vivaldi so hope this is not a FAQ. Ive just installed vivaldi-stable_1.2.490.43-1_amd64.deb in a debian machine. When I try to run vivaldi from the command line nothing happens. it seems the program enter an endless loop. I run it as root Any idea? Thank you in advance.

Please explain me: You run a window manager as root user? Why?
In a root shell check if some Vivaldi processes are running:
ps aux | grep vivaldi
Kill these processes (run the following multiples times):
killall vivaldi-binStart Vivaldi as a regular user in you window manager is running.
Does not start?
find ~ -name "Last Tabs" -delete
find ~ -name "Last Session" -delete

Sorry but none of your suggestion works.
I dont like to run my machine as a normal user. Its about 20 years I use linux as root and nothing happened. Lucky? maybe but this is the way I want to use linux

…. run vivaldi from the command line nothing happens
do you issue the absolute path? "/user/bin/vivaldi-stable & "

With such knowledge you are knowing what you do.
Then look into your syslog, inspect errors and tell us about Vivaldi related messages.
I cant start Vivaldi (and not even Chromium) as root on my Debian 8; it results in a protection fault, may be sandbox related.
