DaVinci Resolve Studio 18.6.2-2 Won't Open

Hi All,

I’m back and asking for help from the best user community on the web.

I was finally able to upgrade from DaVinci Resolve Studio 18 to 18.6.2-2. The upgrade went well, but now the application won’t open at all. Let me know if more information is needed to help correct the issue.

I have already done the following:

  1. Upgraded DRS using Add/Remove Software
  2. Installed the libxcrypt-compat after the upgrade per a previous solution (DaVinci Resolve Does Not Open or Start)
  3. Upgraded my Kernel to 6.5.5-1
  4. Upgraded the entire system with -Syyu
  5. Updated my nVidia driver from 470 to 535.113.01
  6. Ran the DVS build/install one last time
  7. Reboot
  8. Does not open

Current nVidia Driver

Best regards,

Just give us inxi -Fazy

It would be much more helpful with some form of log or output …
For example … try starting it from terminal.

Also please see how to format code etc:

Thank you for your reply.

I ran the inxi -Fazy script and see everything about my machine. Is all this information necessary? Will this compromise my security if I post?

Regards,

Gerry

Option -z removes identifiable information

 -z, --filter  Adds security filters for IP/MAC addresses, serial numbers, 
               location (-w), user home directory name, host name. Default on 
               for IRC clients

“For example … try starting it from terminal.”

I have never been able to open DRS from a terminal and I tried everything. If anyone knows, please share.

With and without sudo
resolve
davinci-resolve-studio
/opt/resolve/bin/resolve
/opt/resolve/

Thanks,

Gerry

Thank you for the clarification. inxi looks very handy.

Gerry

I really hope this helps. Thanks again all.

Thanks to all who replied although none of the suggestions worked for me. The issue was solved by waiting for the next version. I do remember in an earlier post someone suggested I wait for the next version. I waited and now it works and works well.

Regards,

Gerry
