Blink1Control2: Ubuntu 22 issues: Crash during initialization on Ubuntu Kinetic
When I execute Blink1Control2 on Ubuntu Kinetic I got this error:

If I execute blink1control2 --no-sandbox it opens correctly. I don’t know for sure, but IIRC a update in the Electron platform would fix it.

(All the mk2 blink(1)s I had when testing originally had serial numbers that happened to not have any A-F hex digits)
Oh it was a dumb mistake on my part on how I was falling back when creating the Blink1 object for devices. (Forgot that
new Blink1()throws instead of returns undefined)Thank you for your email, it was helpful. It eliminated something in your config as a possible problem.
A new release with this change will be out in few days.
Thank you again for your wonderful assistance during this. I notice you have a blink(1) mk2.
If you’d like a free blink(1) mk3 (excluding any customs duties), send me your preferred shipping address with phone number and we’ll get one shipped out to you.
It apparently starts up but both the About window and the main GUI window are blank. Usually this means either Electron died at some point after making the window or Electron cannot find the app’s files. Not a normal error case that’s for sure. I’m doing a build on Ubuntu22 now to see what that’s like.
Ah perfect! I was in that general area in the Electron issues page. Okay looks like a general Electron problem that requires an update to Electron in Blink1Control2 to fix.
Unfortunately, that’s not an easy thing but should be possible in a week or so.
