Blender won't start in Distrobox

Bird · August 29, 2024, 3:01pm

So I am updating my ROCm / HIP cookbook for any distro! Tested with Blender and Stable Diffusion on Tumbleweed with AMD Radeon 7600 and created some Distrobox containers to test things out.

However, I noticed that none of them could start Blender, which is weird because my original Distrobox container still works and starts Blender without a problem. I have no idea what the difference between the containers is and I also don’t know how I could check the difference.

Here is a console log to show the problem:

As you can see, the old container “rocm” still starts blender, but the new container “rocm6-0-2” doesn’t. Yet, they both use the same ROCm version 6.0.2 and, as far as I know, have the same packages installed.

I am using the Steam version of Blender with the version 4.2.1 LTS

Found the bug!

It all works fine until I install Darktable.

Steps to reproduce:

Download Blender 4.2.1 LTS
Create a Distrobox distrobox create -i ubuntu:22.04 -n test
Enter the container
Install some required packages for Blender sudo apt install libxkbcommon0 libsm6
Confirm that blender works
Install darktable sudo apt install darktable
Confirm that blender doesn’t work
