[SOLVED] Anki is not responsive

I've successfully installed Anki from the AUR. There were no errors during the installation. However, when I start it the window is not responsive. I am using Plasma 5.25.5, Qt 5.15.6, and Anki 2.1.54. Running anki yields:

Anki starting...
Initial setup...
Running with temporary Qt5 compatibility shims.
Run with DISABLE_QT5_COMPAT=1 to confirm compatibility with Qt6.
Preparing to run...
Qt info: 

GL Type: desktop
Surface Type: OpenGL
Surface Profile: CompatibilityProfile
Surface Version: 4.3
QSG RHI Backend: OpenGL
Using Supported QSG Backend: yes
Using Software Dynamic GL: no
Using Multithreaded OpenGL: no

Init Parameters:
  *  application-name Anki 
  *  browser-subprocess-path /usr/share/anki/lib/PyQt6/Qt6/libexec/QtWebEngineProcess 
  *  create-default-gl-context  
  *  disable-features ConsolidatedMovementXY,InstalledApp,BackgroundFetch,WebOTP,WebPayments,WebUSB,PictureInPicture 
  *  disable-setuid-sandbox  
  *  disable-speech-api  
  *  enable-features NetworkServiceInProcess,TracingServiceInProcess 
  *  enable-threaded-compositing  
  *  in-process-gpu  
  *  use-gl desktop 
 
Starting main loop...

The application then hangs. The Anki window is displayed, but is not responsive and I cannot click on anything. This is the same result whether I use the Anki package or the combined binary package shipped with the dependent libraries. Any ideas?

Re: [SOLVED] Anki is not responsive

Turns out it was a rendering issue. Serves me right for not reading the wiki.

echo software > ~/.local/share/Anki2/gldriver6

fixed the issue.
