Failure to launch?

[SilentCyandFriends]

I'm running Linux Mint and am relatively new to the OS, so I installed it using flatpak, but it won't open? Any help would be appreciated!

[srcejon]

Is there an error message if you run it from the command line?

It core dumps. Latest version of Linux Mint as of Jan 25th 2023.

Can you start it under gdb?

gdb /path/to/sdrangel
run

Then when it crashes, type:

info stack

And copy and paste the output here?

Problem is "illegal instruction". Do you have an old CPU? If so, you may need to recompile for your CPU.

[jargowares]

Is this too old? Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-3217U CPU @ 1.80GHz Joel

[srcejon]

I don't know what options the flatpak was compiled with, but as that CPU looks to be 10 years old, it may be.

I'd suggest trying to compile SDRangel yourself.
