Crash at startup version 9.6

The program crashes radomly at startup. Most times just when the program is loaded. What I tried:

  • update my NVDIA driver
  • set swap file to auto
  • initialise fresh setup (i din’t even got the change to set de default configuration)

In the log there are some errors mentioned. But I don’t have the knowlegde to understand. Hopefully you can figure this out.

The current version in 9.11. Is there a reason you are 5 point updates behind it?
