This applies to librewolf and firefox flatpaks. Just to preface, I’ve been using these flatpaks for years and never experienced anything like this.
This morning I did my business as normal with no issues. I usually open and close firefox alot and it takes maybe 10-30 seconds to start.
Then I shutdown for awhile. Came back and fired up firefox… nothing happened. The process is not using any cpu, it just sits. I kill the process and try again nothing changes. After 3-5 minutes, the window finally pops up.
My system installation of firefox works fine. So does the flatpaks for qutebrowser and tor browser. I ran flatpak repair and reinstalled them. Nothing has changed.
I didn’t make any changes to my system. There were no significant updates. I have no idea why this started.
If anybody has any tips on troubleshooting this, I would appreciate it.
Btw I’m on fedora39, and I’ve tested this on sway, gnome, hyprland, and gnome on xorg.
The card is Realtek. I found an askubuntu thread where all flatpak commands were hanging, and their solution was to disable the nic.
This has only happened on this network. I didnt mention at first because I didnt think it mattered, but I’m visiting someone and moved networks.
The instant I take the dev down, the browsers pop up. I would bet money that when I go to my home net everything will work.
The flatseal angle didnt work either. The only reference is names on system bus.
