<![CDATA[Text and images not displaying]]>Hello!

So, two days ago my opera browser started doing this
Screenshot opera browser.png
Any idea how to resolve this issue? I have loads of bookmarks saved and I'd love not to have to uninstall and re-install, also because there is no guarantee that the problem would be solved by doing that.

Thanks!

I am very glad it was such a simple fix!

Turns out this is graphics type specific ...
a) I updated my two Dell laptops with no problem.
b) I updated one of my desktops (of two) and after the update, Chrome, Chrome Beta, Brave are all affected.
(Opera and Firefox are fine).

My desktops have AMD Radeon RX for graphics.
The laptops use Mesa Intel UHD Graphics ... NOT affected.

If you read the complete thread via the link provided by @Franzgrim ... you will see where someone figured out an easy fix. I will quote the fix just below ... I executed the fix on the affected desktop and it fixed ALL the affected browsers !! (though i renamed the directories, vs deleting them)

Here's the fix (this quote is verbatim):

I found a fix for this problem that works for me. 
Credit to this reply on reddit. 
For each affected app, I had to delete the associated GPUCache directory. 
I ended up having quite a few, and found them with:
find ~/ -type d -name GPUCache
I also ended up deleting all of them 
together with:
find ~/ -type d -name GPUCache -exec rm -rf {} +
but do so at your own risk.

Hope this helps others ...

Solved! It's a known issue for Linux Mint, thanks though!

Thanks for providing the feedback and the link to the underlying issue. I have experienced this a while back, even though I'm running Tumbleweed (openSuse rolling distro).
Sometimes, common libraries used across distros can cause the same effect. 👍

Machine specs (real computer or VM)?
Distro in use (+ version)
Desktop manager in use (+ version)
What "activity" happened that might have caused this side effect?
... Update to Opera or a distro update?
All packages up-to-date?
Version of Opera?
Have you tried to login as another user and try Opera?
... Yes? Any difference ??
