      Hi! Every time I try to open up Qt Creator I get an error that says: qt creator failed to create opengl context for format qsurfaceformat. I assume I'm either missing a library or I'm having some sort of linking error. I'm running Arch Linux, i3wm, and have a Nvidia graphics card.

      Can anybody help point me in the right place?

        Hi and welcome to devnet,

        Can you post the exact error ?

        Starting from the command line might also give you additional hints

          This is going to be really weird, but I shutdown my computer last night and it works now? So problem solved apparently!
