Great, as dt is working with the default config, I assume that with your system is everything fine. You could double-check and enable OpenCL with the default config and see if dt still works. If you dn't have some external control panels (I think these are interfaced over MIDI), I would neither mind at the moment about the libportmidi, nor the fontconfig error. > No, I don't think I have a backup of my original config. Darktabe usually writes periodic snapshots of the config/library itself. So I would now try to: 1) First, make a backup of the current config directory. 2) Copy the default darktablerc into your config: $ cp ~/.config/darktable/test/darktablerc ~/.config/darktable/ 3) Roll back the library.db and data.db from darktable's own snapshots, from most recent to oldest, e.g. $ cd ~/.config/darktable $ cp data.db-snp-20230716172500 data.db $ cp library.db-snp-20230716172500 library.db Check inbetween if dt is starting up. Cumbersome task, but if you don't want to start again from a default configuration, that's my best guess...
