Telegram freezes after starting

Hey,

I am using telegram-desktop from arch own repos and KDE 6.4.4 X11

Telegram
QPainter::begin: Paint device returned engine == 0, type: 2
QWidget::render: Cannot render with an inactive painter
QRhiGles2: Failed to make context current. Expect bad things to happen.

that's the output if I try to launch telegram from terminal.

Here's the log.txt from telegram

Re: Telegram freezes after starting

I don't know why but after updating following packages:

Packages (5) bind-9.20.13-1  freetype2-2.14.0-2  jasper-4.2.8-1  libxmlb-0.3.24-1  mpg123-1.33.2-1

Telegram opened without problems even tho it doesn't appear to need those packages?

I might be a little late to the party but I'll say it anyway: I uninstalled Telegram from the system (a few months ago) and downloaded it in a... "portable" variant, so to speak. It's basically an appimage whose extension has been removed:

qWDdjSP.png

Now it's literally independent from the entire system, updates itself when necessary and generally saves me A LOT of trouble with dependencies and potential problems. Just open its official page and click the blue button "Get telegram for linux x64". This will download a tar.xz archive which contains the two files seen above. With these two files no more headaches about pipewire, qt and all sorts of krap to make your life miserable. smile
