Steam deck - core dump about sgdboop HOT 18 CLOSED

Have you tried restarting xdg-desktop-portal after entering desktop mode?
systemctl restart --user xdg-desktop-portal

from sgdboop.

@doZennn when I have some time I will do some more testing and see if I can get an actual core dump.

from sgdboop.

I am going to have to apologise for not following every troubleshooting step.

Clean install of steam deck and this still happened.

xdg-open sgdb://book/test

On the command line works.

Chrome and Firefox nothing.

Then I noticed the opt out of beta notice in troubleshooting steps which I'd missed.

On stable this doesn't happen.

I still think worth tracking down as when beta->stable perhaps will break everyone.

@doZennn resetting default-web-browser and default-url-scheme-handler didn't help.

However looking at the attached, I'm not convinced this gets as far as calling sgdboop, looks like xdg-desktop-portal-kde is crashing which would make this a steam deck bug.

from sgdboop.

I believe I'm running into the same issue. SGDBoop appears to be crashing for me as well when running from the browser.

from sgdboop.

Having the same issue. You can run it fine if you do xdg-open sgdb://<URL> but the browsers can't launch it.

I haven't dug into it myself but skimming through the coredump posted, it's blowing up on Bluetooth?

I might try adding strace to the desktop file to see what it says.

We can't seem to reproduce this or single out the issue from the posted log, so any more info is welcome!

from sgdboop.

If you don't mind going into beta again, can you try setting the default browser with

xdg-settings set default-web-browser [name of the .desktop for a browser]

The browser .desktop names for the Flatpaks should be com.google.Chrome.desktop / org.mozilla.firefox but i'm not sure.

And also this (if the above doesn't work)

xdg-settings set default-url-scheme-handler sgdb com.steamgriddb.SGDBoop.desktop

Someone else was having a similar issue and fixed it this way, I'm not sure if this is the same issue or if they had a bad configuration.

from sgdboop.

As a side note, I downgraded to stable also, but it still doesn't work. I'll try the steps you mentioned to see if anything is amiss.

I am already sure that the scheme handler is set to sgdb, since I've been. Looking at that. But I haven't checked the default browser setting.

Interesting, let's keep this open until the beta goes to stable, no harm in figuring it out anyway.

from sgdboop.

I am already sure that the scheme handler is set to sgdb, since I've been. Looking at that. But I haven't checked the default browser setting.

Don't ignore the step of re-setting of the handler. It doesn't get fixed unless you do that. YES, even setting it to the same option again.

I'm not convinced this gets as far as calling sgdboop, looks like xdg-desktop-portal-kde is crashing

That's what I'm getting here as well.

ValveSoftware/SteamOS#775

could be related to this. the portal service is currently broken on Beta.

Ya reset everything and still nada for me. I'm on stable, all my xdg settings are good.

Looks like it's a KDE portal issue. Maybe it's time I followed that guide to install Gnome instead, it has abetter touch screen experience anyway

Something odd happened. I was messing around with Flatseal. I gave Firefox access to all files and relaunched Firefox. Around the same time, I relaunched firefox in a different way. I have two firefox icons sometimes. While Firefox was running, I clicked the left icon which appeared to be inactive. i believe a new Firefox profile may have been created because the new Firefox window had a light theme instead of the dark theme that I had set it to.

In the new light theme browser, the boop worked.

I dropped Firefox's access down to just my home folder, and the test button stopped working.

Using both the flatpack version of firefox and sgdboop on Steam Deck

@callit I've also thought about an issue with the access rights. Using a portable version of Firefox
(https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Portable_Firefox/ - German), I was able to use sgdboop without problems.
It seems, the flatpak version of Firefox and Chrome are not able to call whatever they want (in my case neither xdg-open nor sgdboop directly). This issue is known for snaps under Ubuntu - I'll have to do a few more tests here to confirm for sure. This problem was also mentioned here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1675200/discussions/1/3448087385661840722/ - unfortunately without any technical details.

Edit: Not an access right issue, as xdg-desktop-portal is responsible for handling file access, opening files and urls.

@doZennn Thank you, saw the new entry on the page just now. Can confirm this working in Chrome and Firefox in Desktop Mode. Not working in Gaming Mode using Chrome.

Jep, loops like its a problem with the xdg-desktop-portal. I got this in the journal each time.
