GUI issue on Linux on HiDPI

Hello.


I've been experiencing an issue with the main menu comes up with no any text entry after some navigation through
Tools -> 3D -> ...
Tools -> Blur -> ...
Tools -> Color -> ...

Zen AiO Pro Z240IC
3840x2160 Intel® Core™ i7 6700T NVIDIA® GeForce GTX960M
Debian 9
Fusion 9.0.2 build 15

The issue was tested on KDE/Gnome/Xfce with no compiz
using Intel HD and then try Bumblebee as well

Ubuntu 16.04 with Prime has the same problem

We like Fusion a lot so would you please resolve it.
Thank you.

That said; I've been using Fu on Linux (ubuntu, centos and manjaro, xfce and i3 for DM) since the first linux builds and never had this specific issue.

Dear sir,
I really appreciate your answer but
As far as I could see CentOS has been updated seriously regarding DE and libs since v 7.0 was released
So would you please share some technical details in order to get it working smooth and stable
In case it is possible for you to share:
- best CentOS ver?
- is it kernel independent?
- best DE ver?
- best qt ver?
- best other system libs ver?
and so on

Thank you.

I am pretty sure that Fusion ships with most libraries (Frameworks/lib) and loads them via relative RPATH.

The crash looks also more like something internal to Fusion.

I am on Fedora 25-27 without (related) issues, however I do not have a HiDPI device.

the crash is the case at the first install with no reboot and Fusion was the only window opened

Sorry I was misreading both issues being one.

As to the crash: You do use primusrun / optirun, right? I would assume that intel graphics will not be good enough for fusion.

Is this crash reproducible? Can you launch from the console do you get any more info?

For example I had to make sure to have OpenCL libraries installed, and in my case it originally had mesa's opencl which I had to remove.

Yes. It crashes on Prime (mint 18), Intel and primusrun/optirun (debian 9.3).

No.
