** Description changed: Problem with gnome-text-editor version 46.3 on ubuntu 24.04.2 x64 (Noble Numbat). I upgraded the computer (in place upgrades) from ubuntu desktop 20.04 LTS > 22.04 LTS > 24.04.2 LTS. The desktop computer has an nvida graphics card and I think wayland is using the version 470 of the nvidia driver. After the inplace os upgrades ended, the old reliable gedit was gone and instead I have gnome-text-editor . I pinned gnome-text-editor to the dash and start gnome-text-editor from the dash. But gnome-text-editor has two obvious problems that make it unuseable viz: (1) specifically when I open a plain ascii text file a few hundreds of lines long , after a couple of seconds the app window goes blank (even if no key is pressed), and can be restored by scrolling up/down. But I need to view the text without it going blank! (2) Some of the dialog-boxes (popup windows) have text that is not readable or is blank. For example, when I choose Menu (hamburger menu) > Preferences, the initial screen is mostly blank with some boxes indicating controls. If I scroll the slider on right-hand-side of popup window then some text becomes visible, but not all, so some controls are "invisible" and remain thus. Any suggestions for how to resolve this? + --- + ProblemType: Bug + ApportVersion: 2.28.1-0ubuntu3.7 + Architecture: amd64 + CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown + CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 24.04 + InstallationDate: Installed on 2021-01-14 (1617 days ago) + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200731) + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia + Package: gnome-text-editor 46.3-0ubuntu2 + PackageArchitecture: amd64 + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 6.8.0-60.63-generic 6.8.12 + Tags: noble + Uname: Linux 6.8.0-60-generic x86_64 + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to noble on 2025-06-18 (1 days ago) + UserGroups: adm cdrom db2admns dip lpadmin lxd plugdev sambashare sudo + _MarkForUpload: True ** Attachment added: "Dependencies.txt" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2114996/+attachment/5884671/+files/Dependencies.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2114996 Title: gnome-text-editor 46.3 issues after upgrade to 24.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-text-editor/+bug/2114996/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
