I have a few days old, not modified much, but up to date 18.04 installation, installed Brave from Snap store and it just doesn’t start. If I use command line there is no output, it sits for few seconds on starting and just goes back to prompt (there is nothing in System Monitor).
Any ideas?
Reinstalled Ubuntu 18.04 a few days ago, same thing happens to me.
Works in the VM but not on my machine. Other snaps works fine.
I have a radeon gpu and I tried with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 to exclude a driver problem since it works in the VM but still doesn’t start.
