Trying to set up Cerebro on Fedora
1 project | /r/Fedora | 11 Oct 2022

In my quest to make my GNOME look and feel like a Mac (I'm sorry, i love the look), I've been trying to set up Cerebro app I use the prebuilt AppImage executable, but it won't work. At first, I was having an error about libva drivers, which I managed to solve, so I can at least run the AppIMage initially, but all it does is open Cerebro to my top bar and the options menu. Whenever I click on "toggle cerebro" (as shown in the screenshot below) i get the following error:
