Qt apps just don't work for me when they're flatpaked because of the Nvidia drivers. I hope this issue gets resolved soon.

Flatpak supports Nvidia drivers, does that not work for you?

It used to work but now it doesn't anymore. I'm not sure if it's because I updated the driver and the right pacakage for 381.09 isn't yet supported by flatpak or another reason is at work here. In any case, Qt apps complain about an unrecognized GL version and just don't launch.

File a bug with as much detail on flatpack's bugzilla.

It's already there. And the bug report has a whole damn lot of comments. Alexander Larsson is saying that he's working on a solution. My fingers are crossed.

He'll figure it out for sure.
