I face the following issue when using keepassxc. When click the toolbar the program closed automatically with the following error:

Gdk-WARNING **: gdkwindow-x11.c:5573 drawable is not a native X11 window

So I started the programm from the commandline with the variable:

GDK_BACKEND=X11 keepassxc

And everything is working fine.

My question now is where is the right place for export GDK_BACKEND=X11?

I tried the following config fils with no success:

• .profile


• .bash_profile


• .bashrc


• .xinitrc


• .xsession

My setup:

• Arch Linux


• Gnome


• Xorg

Any ideas?

arch-linux x11 gnome

  Are you using a launcher to start the app ? If so just create a custom one: copy the original from /usr/share/applications to ~/.local/share/applications and modify the exec line to read Exec=env GDK_BACKEND=X11 keepasxc blahblah where keepasxc blahblah is the original value of the exec line. Double-click it, mark as trusted and you're done.

  Nice idea but this isn't working. When inserting env GDK_BACKEND=X11 it won't start and I get no error.

  :) not necessarily a nice idea but just what everyone else uses to make stuff work with wayland (example); now, why it doesn't work for you - I have no idea... if you check your journal you'll prolly find some clues
