Can't open any Chromium based browser

That's not how environment variables work and "crashes xfce for some reason" isn't actionable, you'll have to provide the corresponding xorg log or system journal or coredump.
Start by posting the xorg conf you attempted.

it was absolutely empty except for this

"DRI" "2"

That's not a legal xorg config and the server will crash/refuse to start because of that.

Hello there

It appears you haave the same issue as me as we got the same CPU brand.

CPU: AMD A4-6300 APU (2) @ 3.700GHz

My solution to the problem is to disable GPU rasterization on chrome://flags.
It's a bandaid solution and i actually fix the problem a long time ago, i forgot how.

It has something to do with Mesa package as i don't have that problem when i was using
Chrome on Debian around a year ago

Hi, I tried run Chrome/Chromium, Edge with Wayland on Fedora but without success. Thought it was distro problem, but on Arch and Gnome 47 it's the same.
My software/hardware details (NVidia open kernel + 560 propertiary drivers):

When run Chromium with flag --ozone-platform-hint=auto I get:

[7355:7355:1009/114627.532201:ERROR:object_proxy.cc(576)] Failed to call method: org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.GetActive: object_path= /org/freedesktop/ScreenSaver: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NotSupported: This method is not part of the idle inhibition specification: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/idle-inhibit-spec/latest/

Running chromium with parameter --ozone-platform=wayland changes nothing.

That's neither the same display server, hardware nor "crash output" as the OP - leaving aside the fbdev clusterfuck in the 6.11 kernels and the default gnome snafu.

Try the behavior on an X11 session and the LTS kernel and post the actual https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Core_d … _core_dump and a complete system journal.
Also try the behavior w/ a fresh user account - do you share yours between arch and fedora?

Arch Linux
