File picker crashes Brave/Firefox/Tor etc Sway Wayland

armory_ivory · May 3, 2024, 9:52pm

expected outcome:

When using the system the file picker should work as usual.
actual outcome:
The file picker on Firefox crashes it or does nothing. On brave it crashes the system. But Falkon works fine. (as it is qt I assume)
I had issues before with it being very laggy before it completely stopped working

Meta information like system and nix versions:
system.stateVersion = “23.11”;
flakes/other experimental features disabled

relevant config, copied and pasted from configuration.nix, these settings have been changed around enabled/disabled with no avail:
programs.sway = {
enable = true;
wrapperFeatures.gtk = true;
};
programs.xwayland.enable = true;

xdg.portal.wlr.enable = true;
xdg.portal = {
enable = true;
extraPortals = with pkgs; [
xdg-desktop-portal-wlr
xdg-desktop-portal-kde
# xdg-desktop-portal-gtk (disabled as it causes errors)
];
};
environment.sessionVariables.XDG_DATA_DIRS = lib.mkAfter [
(builtins.readFile (pkgs.stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = “missing-gsettings-schemas-fix”;
dontUnpack = true;
buildInputs = [ pkgs.gtk3 ];
installPhase = ‘’
printf %s “$GSETTINGS_SCHEMAS_PATH” > “$out”
‘’;
}))
];
systemd.services.xdg-desktop-portal = {
description = “xdg-desktop-portal service”;
after = [ “graphical-session-pre.target” ];
wants = [ “graphical-session-pre.target” ];
partOf = [ “graphical-session.target” ];
serviceConfig = {
ExecStart = “${pkgs.xdg-desktop-portal}/libexec/xdg-desktop-portal”;
Restart = “always”;
User = “”;
};
wantedBy = [ “graphical-session.target” ];
};
xwayland is enabled
firefox error (not mine but had the same, I just can’t reproduce now)

similar post: Tor browser cannot show file picker.
for me it is set to 1 and locked.
I also tried disabling hardware acceleration on firefox, didn’t help.

Did you find the solution? I have the same issue.

might be Bug #2047737 “Nautilus crashes when opening folders that contain...” : Bugs : nautilus package : Ubuntu ?

armory_ivory · May 29, 2024, 1:09pm

Yes, I resolved the issue by adding the ‘gtk3’ package to my system packages

I have the same issue, for the last month+ I am unable to open any file picker in the whole system. Sadly installing gtk3 did not help in my case (not even gtk4). I can reproduce it just by opening Save as… in Firefox, or starting inkscape and trying to open a file. I am a nix beginner.

By any chance, do you guys are using the latest kernel version (pkgs.linuxPackages_latest)?
If so, can you try to use the stable one (pkgs.linuxPackages) to see if the issue is still reproducible? I know that currently there are some Wayland issues with the latest kernel point releases that are currently being debugged in all distros.

I was originally on pkgs.linuxPackages_6_1 which was 6.1.91. Switching to just pkgs.linuxPackages kernel 6.6.31, did not resolve the issue for me.

Here is my config for the reference.

I think that I am getting somewhere. I got Inkscape working, but not FF yet.

The solution for now is a combination of those two reddit comments:

I put this into the config but it failed, but the error message revealed the expanded paths (which was helpful)

sessionVariables.XDG_DATA_DIRS = with pkgs; "$XDG_DATA_DIRS:${gtk3}/share/gsettings-schemas/gtk+3-${gtk3.version}:${gsettings-desktop-schemas}/share/gsettings-schemas/gsettings-desktop-schemas-${gsettings-desktop-schemas.version}";

running the following command failed

λ gsettings get org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size
No schemas installed

I tried to customize XDG_DATA_DIRS (this is the syntax for fish shell)

λ set -x XDG_DATA_DIRS $XDG_DATA_DIRS:/nix/store/6pzxmb82pda01y6zxncdmmp7lhafb75h-gtk+3-3.24.41/share/gsettings-schemas/gtk+3-3.24.41:/nix/store/1s817f9iyszdjkivddb9kjj8xd2kgmbs-gsettings-desktop-schemas-46.0/share/gsettings-schemas/gsettings-desktop-schemas-46.0

now I was able to reset the window-size

λ gsettings get org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size
(855640, 1710766)
λ gsettings reset org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size
λ gsettings get org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size
(-1, -1)

after this Inkscape works, and Firefox at least does not freeze the whole system and then crashes
it even seems to survive restarts
