I run Arch Linux + KDE + sddm under X11. rstudio-desktop-bin is installed on my system (from the AUR). I am able to start rstudio using sudo, but the other proposed solutions (--no-sandbox and --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox) do not work for me. The problem started recently. Suggestions are welcome. See comment #2 at

@meow I think the fix we can do on the AUR side is to replace

sed -i 's|/usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rstudio|/usr/bin/rstudio-bin|' "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop"

with

sed -i 's|/usr/lib/rstudio/bin/rstudio|/usr/bin/rstudio-bin --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox|' "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop"

in the PKGBUILD. This should "just" fix the rstudio.desktop for now and get things working normally again.

Not sure if today's update was aimed at fixing the blank screen issue, but it doesn't fix it and overwrites the rstudio.desktop file, need to add --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox as per below @chendaniely comment.

If anyone is getting the below error in wayland then try to set the QT_QPA_PLATFORM environment variable:

export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb
rstudio --no-sandbox #or --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox

quick fix for the --no-sandbox / --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox issue in rstudio is to either:

  1. export RSTUDIO_CHROMIUM_ARGUMENTS="--disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox" >> ~/.bashrc

  2. You can also aim to modify /usr/share/applications/rstudio.desktop to include --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox at the end of the exec section

See this GitHub comment and the one below it: https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/9854#issuecomment-1047074303

edit: used to say --no-sandbox, changed becaues of @alarg's comment

The glibc issue for rstudio is being tracked here: https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/9854

landaro commented on 2022-02-16 15:58 (UTC)

for what its worth, the Microsoft Teams app from the AUR (running via electron, I think) has similar whitescreen issues since recently, and the discussion there has identified the recent glibc and gcc updates as the presumable source of the problems.

Moreover, teams can be restored to functionality on the updated libs, by passing the --no-sandbox flag as well.

Given that the same workaround seems to fix both teams and rstudio, I would suggest to have a closer look at the underlying shared stack (i.e. electron?)

Hope this helps somehow ^^

rstudio-bin --no-sandbox solves the white screen issue. I think there is a bug with qt5webengine, as the issue appeared after an update of qt5. I guess we should wait for an upstream fix.

PS: I reinstalled rstudio-desktop-bin a few times, then tried rstudio-desktop-preview-bin, downgraded all qt5 packages to older versions, but nothing seems to fix the issue.

Same blank screen. Thought it was only me, reinstalled everything, so far only rstudio-bin --no-sandbox helped

Same issue: blank screen. I switched to starting rstudio-server locally and opening rstudio in my browser, it seems to work fine so far as a temporary workaround.
