[Solved] Debian 12, Wayland, Can't start after installation

[xyen2001]

Hi,

I installed qcad-3.28.2-trial-linux-qt5.14-x86_64 in Debian 12 Wayland KDE
But it shows nothing after I click the Qcad icon.
I tried to start from terminal:

y@43s-1:~/opt/qcad-3.28.2-trial-linux-qt5.14-x86_64$ ./qcad
QCAD version 3.28.2

And it stops here.
What might be the problem?

Thanks.

Can you try to start QCAD with:

Code: Select all

./qcad -platform xcb

For more information on this, please refer to:
https://qcad.org/rsforum/viewtopic.php?t=7866

Bottom line, your system likely tries to enforce running QCAD and other Qt apps using Wayland which is not recommended.

Thanks, Andrew, that solved the problem. It works perfectly now.
