Hello, I'm getting a crash after logging in into my account, here is the beginning of the core dump:

Got it fixed following this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2164892#p2164892

            $ pacman -F nvidia_drv_video.so
            extra/libva-nvidia-driver 0.0.11-1 [instalado: 0.0.12-1]
                usr/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
            extra/libva-vdpau-driver 0.7.4-6
                usr/lib/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so
            multilib/lib32-libva-vdpau-driver 0.7.4-7 [instalado: 0.7.4-8]
                usr/lib32/dri/nvidia_drv_video.so

In my case libva-vdpau-driver was installed, I uninstalled it and replaced it by libva-nvidia-driver

@binarydepth I'm reluctant to add multilib requirements when I haven't found the need for lib32-libnuma in my testing.

Can you please let me know what prompted you to consider it a requirement? Do things break if you remove libnuma?

binarydepth commented on 2024-11-16 19:15 (UTC)

@envolution a simlink might work better, that's true. I had the issue on a new installl jsut days ago.What about lib32-libnuma ? Is this what you mean that is solved also

@binarydepth - that's a new issue I seem to have created a couple of days ago due to a badly targetted symlink.

`sudo ln -s Boosteroid /usr/bin/boosteroid

this is fixed in pkgrel-4 which should be up in a few minutes

The not starting problem is that the binary is capitalized, I changed the launcher to /usr/bin/Boosteroid from /usr/bin/boosteroid and it's working now. Also, you need to install lib32-libnuma from AUR.

@Zoom311 you can get some debug info by starting boosteroid from the command line.

Zoom311 commented on 2024-08-09 17:26 (UTC)

Doesnt start for me. Any ideas?

Happy to see that you finally updated this. Was getting tired of manually having to change the md5.

X11 works for me too. Thank you! But I do not have any sound if I start the boosteroid app... do you have similar issues? If I start it via Chrome it works...

@specter456, I had sound issues as well. I managed to fix it by installing pulseaudio-alsa and pulseaudio-jack. I think only one of the 2 is needed depending on how Boosteroid is developed (likely alsa) but I can't be bothered to test which.

To give some more context, the audio would work fine if it was the only application running, but if I was also watching YouTube or was on a Discord chat it wouldn't work. Or if I launched Boosteroid first, it would prevent the other videos from working.

I guess since I didn't have an alsa audio server, only 1 application could communicate with the audio lib at a time? So whichever launched first got "dibs" on it.
