Thank you for your message, Maxi. Which Linux distribution are you using and what version?

Hi, I'm using Kubuntu 24.04.

Thank you very much, Maxi. I installed Kubuntu once for ARM 64bit and once for Intel/AMD x64. I was able to reproduce the problem. The issue is known as #9662: It affects all Tauri v1 apps. Tauri is the framework MindWork AI Studio is based on. To fix the issue, we need to migrate from Tauri v1 to Tauri v2. We are already planning this change, see #21. But it will take a while, since other things have higher priority.

As a workaround, at least on Intel/AMD x64 hardware, you can use the AI Studio AppImage. This works without any issues. There are currently no automatic updates for Linux anyway, not even for the deb package. So using the AppImage has no downside, apart from the download size.

I hope this information helps you.

PS: I like Kubuntu, now that I’ve tried it. Maybe I’ll replace my Ubuntu installation...

Wow, thanks for taking the time and installing them! Yeah, I will install the Appimage. Kubuntu is exactly like Ubuntu just with the KDE Plasma desktop environment, it's really cool!
