Unity Hub shows a black screen

This is my first time using unity on this Computer, I installed unity hub and launched it and it only loaded black besides the top bar of unity.

Running:
Ubuntu 22.04
Unity Hub 3.1.2
Linux 5.15.0-35-generic x86_64

Installation Date: 2022-05-23

Hi @CryoHelifax. We currently don't support Ubuntu 22.04 (support is upcoming though!)

You are likely running into missing libssl1.1, which is a known limitation right now. We are investigating mitigations.

 

If that is the case you can install libssl1.1 like this in ubuntu 22.04

echo "deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu impish-security main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/impish-security.list

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libssl1.1

This will add the package from ubuntu 21.04, and you can remove it after installing libssl1.1
It made unity hub work for me

 

still getting a black screen

 

I can confirm that after doing what @tothal described above and restarting the system I was able to get past the black screen.

Thank you
@tothal

 

I would not recommend adding the repository of an older release to your system. For those stuck with a black screen on Ubuntu 22.04 or above, you can add the missing libssl1.1 with direct deb file:

wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1l-1ubuntu1.6_amd64.deb

sudo apt install ./libssl1.1_1.1.1l-1ubuntu1.6_amd64.deb[

Afterwards you need to kill any running instance with "killall unityhub-bin" (run it a few times until it says "no process found", and then start UnityHub normally via GNOME.

 

I'm on Ubuntu 22
Nothing here worked for me, but this did:

Code (csharp):

1. wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
2. sudo dpkg -i ./libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
3. rm -i libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb

For those stuck with a black screen on Ubuntu 22.04 or above, you can add the missing libssl1.1 with direct deb file:

wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1l-1ubuntu1.6_amd64.deb

sudo apt install ./libssl1.1_1.1.1l-1ubuntu1.6_amd64.deb[

This gave me a 301 Error: Moved Permanently. But apparently I already had the files installed successfully because when I did this, IT WORKED!

Here's the result:

 

@MorgaineBrigid 's solution worked for me too. Although, the url was slightly different. Added HTTPS and the version is a little different:

Code (Boo):

1. wget https://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb
2. sudo apt install libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb

Restart computer. This fix did not work without a restart.

Thanks @MorgaineBrigid and @tothal !

Here's my ubuntu version for anyone matching:

Code (Boo):

1. $ cat /etc/issue.net
2. Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
3. $ uname -a
4. Linux station-1 5.15.0-47-generic #51-Ubuntu SMP Thu Aug 11 07:51:15 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 

libssl1.1 is already installed on my machine but I still get a black screen.
