[GNC] blank reports

[Mark at Lorimark]

Hi Scott,

I am running a flatpak version and so launching through that.  I added a 
'shortcut' to my start-menu so that I could launch the program.  The 
shortcut uses a script file at ~/bin/gnuchash.sh

Here is the script file contents;

That resolved my blank-report issue without mucking with the nvidia driver.

I was able to see reports after switching the Nvidia driver from version 535 to version 470. I found this fix online, and it worked. But starting a few weeks ago reports were suddenly all blank again. In the meantime I understood that I can print reports to PDF in order to see them, but this is pretty cumbersome, especially because GnuCash's interface for saving them does not know about the folders I've bookmarked in Nemo, and doesn't remember where I saved a PDF last. Today I tried switching to Invidia’s driver version 545 (later than the recommended version, so apparently beta), and it failed to install. So I switched the Nvidia driver from Performance Mode to On-Demand Mode. This is working for now, but I don't prefer it because video movements on my screens are choppy this way.
