Hello, there is another post (https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,1568.msg10739.html#msg10739) that talk about it. I see many people is using an alternative to "Telegram-Desktop".

Best regards.

Thank you @jrballesteros05 , but it's not a solution to use an alternative app!

I am unsure if the problem is due to the Artix-theme. As per this ubuntu forum thread (https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2061142) and this super-user forum thread (https://superuser.com/questions/337639/unable-to-locate-theme-engine-in-module-path-murrine), the problem is arising because you are missing a certain gtk2-engine package. The solution allegedly is installing or reinstalling the package, not changing the theme.

Do try it once. Thanks. :)

how big problem is install gtk-engine-murrine??

Quote
pacman -S gtk-engine-murrine

btw. I just installed the telegram-desktop under KDE, and it doesn't report any bugs. The problem is probably with your gtk2 setup

@robotfreak , please try
Code: [Select]
sudo pacman -S gtk-engines
That must solve the issue once and for all.
