[SOLVED] Cannot open gnome-disk-utility on Hyprland

'gnome-disks' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)

This is the error I am getting every time I try to open gnome-disks

Re: [SOLVED] Cannot open gnome-disk-utility on Hyprland

Hi Juhayer,
Looks like a segmentation fault in Hyprland. This might be due to missing dependencies or compatibility issues with your Wayland compositor. Try running gnome-disks from the terminal with 

GDK_BACKEND=x11 gnome-disks

to force X11, and see if that helps. If it works, the problem is likely with Wayland support.
Also, check for any related logs or updates for Hyprland and gnome-disk-utility.

Thanks.
This worked for me:

gnome-disks --display=$DISPLAY
