Hi folks. I have installed Debian 12 bullseye with the lxqt desktop environment. I have run lxqt sessions on it using xfwm4, as well as i3wm, as the window manager. However, for some weird reason brave browser would not launch - neither in xfwm4 nor in i3-wm. So I tried to run the command in the shell to see what output it would produce. I have attached the image which shows the output of the command “brave-browser” in a terminal running the bash shell.

Please help to solve this problem. I love using Firefox but I also love having options and Brave happens to be one of my favourites. (In case, this is relevant, Chromium and Qutebrowser run without any issues. Only Brave is behaving in a weird manner).

EDIT: I have found the solution. One needs to add the flag --disable-features=AllowQt when running it from the command line. However, as I couldn’t get hold of Brave’s config file, I have just added an alias in my bashrc and made changes to brave’s .dekstop file in /usr/share/applications and my i3 config file.

To the folks who posted useless comments instead of actually helping: Thanks for nothing.
