I extracted the spirit settings archive and started settings.sh. A unit was connected via USB and powered up. The serial port is generally "visible" for applications which I verified with another program.

Running settings.sh in terminal shows this output:

qt.glx: qglx_findConfig: Failed to finding matching FBConfig for QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize -1, redBufferSize 1, greenBufferSize 1, blueBufferSize 1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize -1, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::SingleBuffer, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QSurfaceFormat::DefaultColorSpace, profile QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile)
No XVisualInfo for format QSurfaceFormat(version 2.0, options QFlags<QSurfaceFormat::FormatOption>(), depthBufferSize -1, redBufferSize 1, greenBufferSize 1, blueBufferSize 1, alphaBufferSize -1, stencilBufferSize -1, samples -1, swapBehavior QSurfaceFormat::SingleBuffer, swapInterval 1, colorSpace QSurfaceFormat::DefaultColorSpace, profile QSurfaceFormat::NoProfile)
Falling back to using screens root_visual.

After that, the application terminates without any further output.

Hello,

can you please start the app with the following command?
You can do so by opening terminal (F4 command might work) and in the Spirit Settings app launch this:
QT_OPENGL=software ./settings.sh
I hope this will help.

The message in the terminal window unfortunately remains the same and the spirit window does not show up.

I finally suceeded inserting this line in my settings.sh:

export QT_XCB_GL_INTEGRATION=none

Thank you very much for letting us know!
We released new Spirit Settings 4.0.2 r2 that will hopefully fix the issue permanently.

Thanks for raising this. After many months of the same problem I have now fixed the issue, but differently! The new R2 software didn't work for me. I replaced 'wayland' in this command line in Settings.sh with x11. "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" = "x11" ]

Sorted now. I'm no Linux expert!
