DaVinci Resolve Studio 19.0.3 Not Starting After Update

Hello everyone,

I recently updated DaVinci Resolve Studio to version 19.0.3 from AUR. Unfortunately, I’m unable to launch the application since the update. When I try to start it from the terminal, I get the following error:

❯ /opt/resolve/bin/resolve
/opt/resolve/bin/resolve: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_task_set_static_name

I also checked the comments in AUR, and there was a suggestion to use the following command:

sudo sed -i 's/Exec=\/opt/Exec=LD_PRELOAD="\/usr\/lib\/libgio-2.0.so \/usr\/lib\/libgmodule-2.0.so" \/opt/g' /usr/share/applications/DaVinciResolve.desktop

I tried running this command in the terminal, but it didn’t resolve the issue.

Could someone please assist me in figuring out how to fix this?

See:

I already tried it but I received this error then:

❯ /opt/resolve/bin/resolve ActCCMessage Already in Table: Code= c005, Mode= 13, Level= 1, CmdKey= -1, Option= 0 ActCCMessage Already in Table: Code= c006, Mode= 13, Level= 1, CmdKey= -1, Option= 0 ActCCMessage Already in Table: Code= c007, Mode= 13, Level= 1, CmdKey= -1, Option= 0 ActCCMessage Already in Table: Code= 2282, Mode= 0, Level= 0, CmdKey= 8, Option= 0 log4cxx: No appender could be found for logger (BtCommon). log4cxx: Please initialize the log4cxx system properly.

quick search tells that is opencl issues conflicts/wrong/not supported from arch forums mostly has been on amd cards, but it might even be that latest nvidia and it related depencies are too new for DaVinci that relies on really old systems and actually are now oreferring yo use there own iso

If I understand you correctly, there is no fix available yet.
I have an NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti,

yeah i havent able to get it work so no fix that i know

workaround i know that have been working is installing distrobox with supported distro there then install depencies and davinci

If you find a solution, I will be very happy if you share it here.
If I succeed, I will of course do the same.

found out that openCL is not supported atleast 18.6 still abd need to be used closed ones

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DaVinci_Resolve

I don’t understand it well, what does it mean?
The only thing I actually changed for myself is the exchange of NVIDIA’s closed drivers for the Open version.
Is there any connection?

I have reinstalled DRS 19.0.3 once again and used these commands:

sudo rm /opt/resolve/libs/libglib-2.0.so*
sudo rm /opt/resolve/libs/libgio-2.0.so*
sudo rm /opt/resolve/libs/libgmodule-2.0.so*

DRS started without issues.

seems like issue might been uograding and fresh install fixed everything with removing some

this fixed for me depency issues, but i am still having unable to initialize GPU issue seems it detects only openCL

EDIT
those files need to be removed on each DaVinci update since update installs those always back

I put this info into my notes. :wink:

i think on hybrid/optimus systems issue comes on power profile settings. It sees everyhting, but cant initialize dGPU on start or am i missing something on intel side since i remember other distro i had tick on both GPU’s now i cant tick iGPU so it might be somethin i need to install more to intel side

To be honest, I have no experience with hybrid/Optimus systems, but I’m learning something new every day. Unfortunately, I have to pass on this one.

GitHub - Ashark/davinci-resolve-checker: Check your system configuration and hardware for ability to successfully run DaVinci Resolve

I was notified that Davinci Resolve Studio was updated to version 19.0.4 in AUR.
I hope that the issues were fixed this time.

i am not on studio, but i guess i need to go for studio as i read more and more GPU and many other issues are fixed on studio version
and free version is still 19.0.4

Made an account just to say THANK YOU!!

I have been trying for YEARS to get resolve to work on my 10th gen i5 with integrated graphics laptop, always gave up because nothing worked.

These simple terminal commands fixed my issue! can’t believe I can use my favorite NLE on windows and linux now :smiley:

Attention!
DRS v 19.0.4 - has also a bug.
Waiting for a fix.

EDIT: v 19.0.5 is already available!
