You cannot execute a .desktop file like this directly. gtk-launch can do this for testing, but the intended use for the .desktop file is to drop it in ~/.local/share/applications so that the defined shortcut shows up in your DE's launcher. Then you can just click it from there. You may need to adjust the Exec= line inside the .desktop file to point to the path of the binary that's being run.

i forgot to add that i tried to run it in console after it didnt open

#

when i run the program path i get

madeline@midvightmirage:~$ /opt/resolve/bin/resolve
/opt/resolve/bin/resolve: symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0: undefined symbol: g_task_set_static_name

#

#

nwm it isnt taking my GPU
I use an RX 6600 S

#

so what im getting at is that i need to buy studio to use my gpu...

#

so linux davinci resolve always costs money because "licenses"

#

fun

#

i did random stuff with ai and
sudo apt install mesa-opencl-icd ocl-icd-libopencl1 mesa-vulkan-drivers

it now opens the project manager
