…K DMABUF renderer WebKitGTK's DMA-BUF renderer crashes the web process immediately on the proprietary NVIDIA driver under Wayland, so Mini Apps open as frozen, empty windows that have to be force-killed. Set WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 at startup (overridable) so the inherited webview helper subprocess falls back to a working buffer-sharing path. WebKitGTK is used only for Mini Apps, so nothing else is affected. Closes AyuGram#393

Problem
On Wayland (tiling compositors such as Hyprland) with the proprietary NVIDIA driver, launching any Mini App (Telegraph, Wallet, …) opens a frozen, empty window. Both the Mini App and the main window become unresponsive and have to be killed with
pkill -9. The log shows the webview's web process dying immediately, after whichBotWebViewposts events to it:The affected setup reports
OpenGL ES 3.2 NVIDIA 580.159.04.Root cause
Mini Apps render via WebKitGTK in a helper subprocess. WebKitGTK's default DMA-BUF / GBM renderer crashes the web process immediately on the proprietary NVIDIA driver under Wayland.
lib_webviewonly disables GL for the Raster backend, so with NVIDIA's OpenGL backend the crash-prone DMA-BUF path stays active. This is a well-known WebKitGTK/NVIDIA issue (see WebKit bug 262607).Fix
Set
WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1at Linux startup inPlatform::start(), which makes WebKitGTK fall back to a working buffer-sharing path. The webview helper is spawned as a subprocess that inherits this environment, and WebKitGTK is used only for Mini Apps, so nothing else in the app is affected. The value is only set when the user hasn't already defined it, so it stays overridable.lib_webviewis an upstream-pinned submodule, so the fix is applied in AyuGram's own source rather than the submodule.Testing
This is an NVIDIA/Wayland-specific GPU-driver crash and could not be reproduced on the development machine. Verification would be confirming a Mini App now opens normally on affected hardware.
