When I start gnucash all reports are black pages.

Which version of gnucash?
The latest one: gnucash-5.8-r100 but I had the same problem with previous version as well. Others reporting similar problem, https://superuser.com/questions/1810879/gnucash-4-8-not-displaying-reports
I do use GnuCash, I am not experiencing this issue. My main goal here is just to help. I'm not a dev, so take what I put here with a grain of salt. I'm just reporting what I see, researched, and found. Looking over your bug I see that you're using Nvidia graphics. After some research into the bug system of both GnuCash and WebKitGTK, it shows that the problem is with Nvidia's drivers. We'll start with GnuCash's bug report: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=799086 The person was using Nvidia's drivers and in the end they marked it as "Status: RESOLVED NOTGNUCASH" And looking at WebKitGTK's reports: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261874 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259644 https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=228268 In a nut shell Nvidia drivers cause issues with not only with GTK3 using WebKitGTK, but also with GTK4 using the same. I did notice the WebKitGTK reports suggesting driver options to enable that may resolve this issue, so maybe you should try some of their suggestions. Good luck.
Thank you for the leg work, Will! Unfortunately, until WebKit and/or Nvidia fix their stuff, WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 will be needed for those impacted by blank reports with Nvidia drivers.
