--disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox | Way to open V 3.8

@priest72 said in --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox | Way to open V 3.8:

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.

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 system

I 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!
L.

@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.

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.

@linuxb
Thank you for your answer.
getconf LONG_BIT got me 64, so I reinstalled marco.
I still get the same issue when trying to launch vivaldi

@linuxb
Still a similar thing:
~$ vivaldi-stable --use-gl=desktop
libva error: vaGetDriverNameByIndex() failed with unknown libva error, driver_name = (null)

@linuxb
Thanks agian for the help!
That last command didn't do it either.
I tried updating my GPU driver and that created a bug at boot so I restored a timeshift save. I used the integrated driver manager and it doesn't show anything other than the GPU driver, would you recommand using another software to check on other drivers?

I had the same issue on LinuxMint 20.2 xfce today.

For me:

apt reinstall vivaldi-stable

Did the job!
