      Relevant information:
      Ubuntu 22.04
      Opera 91.0.4516.65
      GeForce GTX 1050
      nVidia 515 drivers

      Issue: Opera opens to a complete white screen. I mean, no borders, no search bar, no runs no drips no errors. Literally it's just a white box. So running it via the CLI I get this output:

      opera:15834): Gtk-WARNING **: 21:18:12.191: Theme parsing error: gtk.css:1422:23: 'font-feature-settings' is not a valid property name

      I've attempted running with via a fresh profile, exact same results/errors. I have not updated the video drivers in a few months, but have updated the OS via apt update, etc.
      Searching our google friend has lead me to zero other findings. Any idea's or pointers are greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

        Snap version of Opera?

        If so, as a test, does the non-snap version work okay?

        I'd look at https://www.google.com/search?q="Failed+to+begin+udev+enumeration" for the udev error.

          Yes, opera installs via snap. However, thanks to your recommendation (and my sheer lack of vision) I removed the snap and installed via the .deb file. Works great now.

          Cheers sir!
