8.0-beta Segmentation fault
I have a persistent problem with Zotero crashing frequently on Ubuntu 24.04. I have had the problem with both 7.0.24 and the current beta. The beta is running happily on another machine. To try to fix the crashing, I moved zotero.sqlite, removed 7 and installed the beta. When I run ~/zotero --safe-mode --ZoteroDebugText > zotero-debug1.txt it syncs for ten minutes, or longer and then crashes.
From terminal:
./zotero
[84032] Sandbox: CanCreateUserNamespace() unshare(CLONE_NEWPID): EPERM
Missing chrome or resource URL: chrome://zotero/skin/16/white/loading.svg
Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: RenderCompositorSWGL failed mapping default framebuffer, no dt (t=48.4074) [GFX1-]: RenderCompositorSWGL failed mapping default framebuffer, no dt
./zotero: line 20: 84030 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$CALLDIR/zotero-bin" -app "$CALLDIR/app/application.ini" "$@"
I can't see anything in the local debug file that helps to explain the crash. I've submitted Debug D295473111.

poettliIs it installed via flatpak? If that's the case, do you see the same with the official tarball (or the zotero-deb)?

kdb_researchThis isn't the flatpak, I used the tarball. But I think the problem was either with the Nvidia driver, or with some combination of the driver and Wayland. I removed the Nvidia drivers completely, swopped to X-org, and then reinstalled the Nvidia driver. Zotero working fine now on X, so I'll probably stay with that.
