I opened Texmaker and attempted to open a file from the software, and it crashed.  To reproduce the error, open up Texmaker, and then try to open a file from the software.  It'll do it again!

That's weird ..

I have been trying to recreate this for the last 15 min with little success.

I have created new files, opened old ones, made \blindtext files, nothing ... :(

Have you been unable to open files using texmaker at all? Does it crash everytime?
Comment 15 Umberto 2016-12-07 21:09:47 UTC 
Hi! I encountered the exact same bug after upgrading to Fedora 25. After a quick google research I was able to find a workaround by opening Texmaker from the command line with 

GDK_BACKEND=x11 texmaker
Comment 16 Mukundan Ragavan 2016-12-08 02:07:55 UTC 
aha! Wayland vs X11!

Thanks Umberto.
Comment 17 Thomas 2016-12-08 22:41:31 UTC 
Yes.  I see.  I did the command Umberto suggested and works like a charm.  It turns out that when I upgraded, qgnomeplatform was not installed during the upgrade.  So  typing in 

...]$ sudo dnf install qgnomeplatform

fixes my problem.  I'm sure that this will be the case in most instances, especially if one upgrades from an earlier version of Fedora.

Thank you for all your help!
Comment 18 Umberto 2016-12-09 09:43:47 UTC 
Thanks! I did the same and now it is working perfectly.
