Describe the problem

On my Haswell iGPU laptop and on my AMD RX 6750XT I get a blacked out window whenever GPU acceleration is enabled.

This seems to be a bug that keeps coming back.
Can you guys add a option to just disable it so I don't have to launch it from terminal or edit the .desktop files to include --disable-gpu ?
Honestly I don't really know why this is enabled to begin with, does a IDE really need a GPU??

I don't even care if you guys fix this bug, but can you please just add an option in the GUI so I can just disable this on all my computers when I first set up Arduino IDE?

To reproduce

Open Arduino IDE

Expected behavior

To be able to see a window

Arduino IDE version

2.3.4 (from flathub)

Operating system

Linux

Operating system version

Fedora 41

Additional context

I'm on Fedora 41 (Bazzite) on my main rig
And Fedora 41 (official KDE spin) on my Laptop.
Both are running the latest updates, both still run into this bug.
(The laptop has had this bug for over a year, but it's a old laptop and I just didn't care enough to report it)

This error doesn't seem to occur on my main rig with the nightly version, but it still happens on my laptop.

Issue checklist
