Running Flatpak

To start Flatpak, run the command:

flatpak run com.AxxonSoft.AxxonOne

Attention!

  • You must run the command under the current user (not as the root user).
  • In Ubuntu 24, there can be startup problems if you use this command. For the correct startup, we recommend using the commands from the Possible problems in operation section.

To view all installed applications via Flatpak, run the command:

flatpak list

You can also use this command to check if Flatpak is installed/uninstalled.

Possible problems in operation

If Axxon One doesn’t start after you install Flatpak, you can run the command:

flatpak repair com.AxxonSoft.AxxonOne

This command checks installed files and fixes errors in Flatpak apps, updates dependencies, fixes permission errors, and can also detect configuration errors.

If Axxon One still doesn't start after you run the previous command, you can run the command:

xhost +si:localuser:$USER && flatpak run com.AxxonSoft.AxxonOne

If the Axxon One client starts after you run the command, then xhost +si:localuser:$USER must be:

  1. Run on every new system startup.
  2. Added to autostart.

Uninstalling Flatpak

To uninstall Flatpak, do the following:

  1. Uninstall com.AxxonSoft.AxxonOne:
    flatpak uninstall com.AxxonSoft.AxxonOne
    After you run the command, the system can ask you to confirm the uninstallation. If unused dependencies are detected during the process, you will be prompted to uninstall them as well.
  2. If necessary, you can uninstall all unused dependencies with the command:
    flatpak uninstall --unused

Uninstalling Flatpak is complete.
