Hi Elmar,
It may be useful to start gnucash in flatpak from the command line to check for error
messages.
You can do so by opening a terminal window (Konsole, Xterm, Gnome Terminal,...) and enter
this command:
flaptak run org.gnucash.GnuCash
And see if it prints any output in the terminal that may indicate possible issues.
Regards,
Geert
