Hey I have added Linux support initially and it's a well known issue with NVIDIA cards and Tauri Apps that the app starts but the screen is blank. My original fix was to force
WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1on Linux but this is too wide and actually just disables hardware acceleration, the app became more heavy lately and it causes problems.I've replaced with
__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1which targets the issue with NVIDIA setup specifically and it works well as a workaround (I have RTX 4090). This obviously needs more feedback from other Linux users, but if you don't have NVIDIA card, you should be fine.This is better than disabling hardware acceleration for the whole app on Linux!
