Obsidian crash - "Segmentation fault (core dump)"

Note:
I am using Arch Linux with Hyprland, whom this last one is claimed to have problems with Electron which i think is the main reasoning behing this problem.

I already tried to run Obsidian with obsidian --disable-gpu and on many other ways with many other flags (included the ones who were at the Hyprland’s Wiki). However, none of them works.

What happens is:

  1. Run Obsidian, both with or without flags.
  2. After some 2~3 seconds it just crashes.

More strangely, i got this output:

$ obsidian --disable-gpu

obsidian --disable-gpu

Segmentation fault (core dump)

Also, env = ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT , auto is already on hyprland.conf

Note: Never got Obsidian running on this setup, i just installed Hyprland after a fresh Arch install (with some tweaks, of course).
Got through some forums and searched a bit, while i could find some useful similar info i couldn’t solve my problem.

Edit:
Just adding more useful info.

$ obsidian
[...]
ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 1 times!
Segmentation fault (core dump)

I am sorry your setup is outside what we support. I am gonna move this to the help section for now. Thanks

If you have the same problem as my own, well, maybe the problem is the cursor…
Try to change it with GTK Settings (i.e, nwg-look) or with something similar.
