I switched to a Linux Mint/Win11 dual boot system over the weekend and installed Unity from Flathub. Running Unity Hub is fine but when I try to login, it hangs with no errors. I can log into the asset store just fine, so nothing wrong with the credentials. I’d like to know what terminal commands I could use to see what it’s actually doing and figure out why it hangs.

I really don’t want to continue using it in Windows and only keep it to run work programs, and really need to use Unity for University.

Edit: Troubleshooted via the terminal, then uninstalled the .Deb package that I downloaded from the Unity website and then followed another tutorial from another part of their website with terminal commands. Managed to log in and run my projects.

    My lazy hack for debugging any program is running the main executable from the command line. That usually streams the logs into the terminal and helps me debug from there.

    are you on a distro that uses an LTS version of firefox Ubuntu as a base?

    if so, try installing Firefox ESR

    i think unity expects the newest version of ff to be installed and bugs out otherwise

      I use Waterfox but I’ll try that too. Would suck because I like Waterfox.
