Hi,
I’d like to run joplin-desktop. But I see a corruped desktop when when I try.
When I run this on a custom debian installation with nix-the-package-manager installed from apt:
$ nix shell nixpkgs#joplin-desktop -c joplin-desktop
I expect to see Joplin open (like it does on a another machine running NixOS).
But I actually see this screenshot:
It initially starts out as one window, but since shows an empty window in “three copies” like this, and corrupts the display in general (I actually only have one terminal open). It also shows the “Vanilla Joplin log messages” shown below.
Tried nixGL
I found GitHub - nix-community/nixGL: A wrapper tool for nix OpenGL application [maintainer=@guibou] where README.md says:
NixGL solve the “OpenGL” problem with nix.
I don’t know what the “OpenGL” problem is, but it reduced the log output to what is shown in “nixGL log messages” below, by running:
$ nix shell --impure nixpkgs#joplin-desktop github:nix-community/nixGL -c nixGL joplin-desktop
but the screen still looks similarly corrupted. (This did fix upstart of another GUI application that didn’t previously work…)
Tried setting up /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri
One of the error messages was that /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri/iris_dri.so didn’t exist. And true, not even /run/opengl-driver existed. So I tried:
$ sudo mkdir -p /run/opengl-driver/lib/
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri /run/opengl-driver/lib/
Now /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri/iris_dri.so exists, but the 3 log messages like this persist even now that the file exists:
MESA-LOADER: failed to open iris: /run/opengl-driver/lib/dri/iris_dri.so: cannot open shared object file
Error messages: Failed to load module “(xapp|canberra)-gtk3-module”
There were error messages like that. But nix shell nixpkgs#vim-full -c gvim shows them too, and gvim seems to work fine, so I assume that is not it.
What now?
Can I do something to get joplin-desktop to work?

(I also tried github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-23.11)
