MESA issues - mm actually displays

[nakulbende]

Saw this error in npm start. Quick search says that these typically rnder a black screen - I am actually seeing MM, so what does this error mean?

@nakulbende 90% of the time this can be ignored. If you’re getting your mirror up on screen, there’s no issue.

@nakulbende turn off use of the GPU.

add

export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1

to the place where you do
npm start

add that line before the npm start

in next release Jan 1,
we are doing this by default a d adding a new
ELECTRON_ENABLE_GPU=1

as no one is really using the GPU
