Can't run 17.01 on Linux Mint 18

bdubu · January 9, 2017, 6:33am

I have all of the dependencies installed that are listed here but still no luck. Whether I double-click the icon or the script, nothing really happens. If I attempt to run the script from a terminal it outputs the error text below. Note the “Floating point exception” at the very end. Hopefully I can get it to work as I’m really looking forward to trying the software. From the information on your website, it looks really nice! Thanks!

It works for me on Mint 18 in a virtual machine. It seems to not like your X server. If you search the web for “QXcbConnection: XCB error: 3 (BadWindow)” you can find many results. One bug report I read suggests that you should not use sudo, and you must be using the same user as what you are logged into as the desktop. It seems to be a problem with Qt 5 and some systems. Another bug report suggests running “export QT_DEVICE_PIXEL_RATIO=1” in the terminal window before starting the app.

bdubu · January 11, 2017, 6:04pm

Thanks Dan! (Forum requires a message of at least 20 characters so, blah, blah…)

bdubu · January 13, 2017, 1:42am

I wasn’t able to resolve the original issue I was having but I did manage to get the program to run just fine from a live DVD (though granted, running on a different computer – my 6 or 7 year old laptop). As such, I thought that I’d leave some feedback for others. After becoming frustrated with using another Linux NLE when a clip on my timeline just suddenly dissappeared (possibly due to something I did wrong), I decided to go the next level in getting Shotcut to run. Guessing that it doesn’t like the Intel graphics on my HTPC computer, I decided to try Shotcut using the exact same O/S (Linux Mint 18, MATE edition) except running on my old laptop and from a Live DVD. I’m happy to say that although Shotcut wouldn’t run from the main menu (something I think I can easily fix), the script itself did run from the terminal. And BTW, I installed Shotcut from the “unofficial” PPA… My immediate motivation to find a good video editing solution that I can use in Linux is that I wanted to create a short “Emergency Broadcast System” video to prank my wife into thinking that we’re about to get nuked, lol. So once I got Shotcut up and running from a Live DVD on my old laptop, it worked flawlessly, and just as important, intuitively. Now to ready myself for a week or more of sleeping on the couch… Really exceptional work, guys, I’m a convert, whether I have to boot from a live media or not!

berchaz · January 15, 2017, 11:38am

I have the same problem since the November’s release.
I agree with Dan it is probably a Qt5 problem.
For my side I am using Linux Mint 17.1 with Xfce, I was waiting for an distrib update but apparently the problem is not fixed .
I tryed the “export QT_DEVICE_PIXEL_RATIO=1” before launch but I still have the same issue.
I have to check the other way Dan spoke about.

Anyway even with old release, … shotcut is a very nice and easy solution

Lamplighter1440 · January 24, 2017, 5:11pm

To add to the discussion…

If it helps - I’m using Shotcut 17.01.02 on Linux Mint 18.1, with Cinnamon and xserver-xorg-video nouveau (rather than the Nvidia 340 (recommend) ) and all seems to work well
Hardware: Sony Vaio Laptop, Intel i5, 4g ram, dual boot within Windows 7 as alternative.
Good luck with yours

Nick_Name · January 26, 2017, 5:21pm

I confirm it runs well with Mint 18.1 Cinnamon 64bit and the nvidia drivers in my case. It is a huge performance difference compared to the intel card.

berchaz · January 28, 2017, 10:41am

I just updated to Mint 18.1 Xfce with Nvidia 960 and I still have the problem.
I already tried to used the xorg-video nouveau solution but in my case, I do not know why the resolution fall down to an unusable level.
For the moment I am trying to compile from the source but in my system the Qt C++11 libraries are missing, I guess the Qt version of Mint Serena Xfce is not the good one

Nick_Name · January 28, 2017, 1:55pm

BTW I’m using the Nvidia 375.26 driver from the ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa, but I am pretty sure it should run on the one provided by the main repository.

berchaz · January 29, 2017, 12:27pm

Hi Nick_name,

I just upgrade to Nvidia 375.26 but result is the same.
This behavior is weird. I am also thinking the fact I use a Xeon, perhaps some graphics instruction are not available ?

Nick_Name · January 30, 2017, 8:48am

Sorry, I wish I could be of help, but I don’t know how. Maybe you could paste what’s shown when you run shotcut from the terminal?

I you have any idea ?

Floating point exception seems to be the show stopper. You also have this other thread

realflash · February 4, 2017, 5:03pm

Not sure what binary you are starting but try running

/usr/local/Shotcut/Shotcut.app/bin/shotcut

I always get a segfault if I run

/usr/local/Shotcut/Shotcut.app/shotcut

shotcut · February 4, 2017, 9:30pm

THAT IS INCORRECT AND NOT SUPPORTED.

sismeiro · February 5, 2017, 2:15pm

From the Shotcut FAQ page:

Shotcut will not start on Linux…

Some file managers do not like the launcher icon provided with the
binary download from this site. The launcher icon was tested
successfully on GNOME Nautilus and KDE Dolphin.

open a terminal/console window cd to the location where you have extracted Shotcutenter Shotcut.app/shotcut

Please do not try to run bin/shotcut; always use the wrapper script in the Shotcut.app
folder! If it still does not start, then it should report that some
libraries could not be loaded.

realflash · February 6, 2017, 9:50am

Understood. I may have been mixing up my memories on this one - I was sure I had a machine where launching the correct launch ended in a segfault but it worked if I ran the binary directly. Unfortunately I don’t have that machine any more to double check.

berchaz · February 11, 2017, 12:18pm

Hi Realflash,

I tried both the shell script /usr/local/Shotcut/Shotcut.app/shotcut and the binary in bin dir for both I source the file source-me, … no success.
But i instead of Xfce I run Kde, it is ok, shotcut 1702 is ok. Probably the graphic environment of Xfce is not up to date enough for shotcut, especialy the Qt support.

Thank you for taking care of my post.

berchaz · February 11, 2017, 12:28pm

Just for info, with Cinnamon it does not run

shotcut · February 13, 2017, 12:26am

All of my successful tests were using Cinnamon desktop. Your mileage may vary.
