Quoting: EikeGood call, but I'm not sure it tells me much: it looks like it's reading every file under /usr/share/applications (*.desktop files), then looking in /usr/share/cloud-providers (doesn't exist), then getting the pid and reading /etc/localtime to dump out this error message:Quoting: PhlebiacBoth this and Zelda64 crash out when I select the "Load ROM" menu option. I'm guessing it's supposed to show a file picker?If you want to deep dive, strace would probably tell you what they're trying to load there.
